these are the first stars tonight
and for the rest of my life

these are the first words i’ll say
into the dark of today
you are my first love at last
now that time is slipping so fast

wait for might
after my strength has fallen
wait for hope to rise
wait for life
to rush in the air i’m breathing
if you help me through i’ll try

these are the first stars in sight
maybe my last glimpse of light

…these are the first stars
