Dear tiny dots of twinkling light
It's time for me to say goodnight.
There's so much madness in this world
But I feel safe cause I'm aware
You are up there.
I trust stars, high in the skies.
I trust stars, ancient and wise.
I'm made from your dust!
Stars I trust.
Goodnight, you South Dakota stars!
Beyond the Moon, the Earth, and Mars.
Look, there's a lion, and Orion
Snake and Dragon.
Could there be stars that make me?
I trust stars, are never gone.
I trust stars, always live on.
I'm made from your dust!
Stars I trust.
And sure, some folks will say
That all of this is hay.
It's just a smoky-eyed romantic notion so I'll feel okay
But they cannot deny
No matter how they try
That it's a fact, we're all connected,
From the grass up to the sky.
I have my memories to do with as I please.
I know I always can recall that starry perfect night in Fall
When you stood underneath this tree
And promised you would always be
With me.
I trust you're here with me.
