How I wish you and I might live among the stars [instrumental - piano, guitar, sax] I saw you in your window Staring at the stars, Unaware of the love, Hiding beneath you We started as friends’ Girlfriends at work who had lunch together, and Went shopping on weekends When you were free I’m not sure when it happened I realized I wanted more To be together; to live together When I told you how I felt You said you loved me too, but What I wanted was not possible, you said, Because you had a life with a man I’d never met How foolish I felt Professing romantic love when we’d never even kissed Yet, I took heart in the hint of regret I heard When you said you loved me, too So, here I am hiding in the dark Beneath your window Hoping one day you will be free Wishing I was one of the stars You gaze at so longingly The love I feel for you overwhelms me My senses and sensibility Are played false by my desire That you and I might live among the stars We might live among the stars among the stars
