Shine still

Shine on little star

we need you here

life is what you make of it

dont run this time



stay your self

for just a moment

plant your self

like a tree and root



lift your delicate arms

up to meet mine

join in this moment

your fingers twined



delicate though you may be

there is an inner strength

that is blinding to see

Breathe in and hold



breathe out and still

your racing heart

fluttering beats stand

you well in this moment



shine on little star

this roaring tide

will pass us by

stand still and hold



shine for we little star

join with me a moment

more in this place

hold just a moment more
