My Little Star

[Intro — very sparse, soft guitar, room tone] [Verse 1 — close, intimate vocal] Here I sit In this quiet room Half asleep And holding tension Then you breathe And I breathe too And suddenly It all begins [Chorus — restrained, no big lift] Twinkle, twinkle My little star I just want to hold you Forever in my arms So small My little star [Instrumental — brief, faint guitar haze] [Verse 2 — soft, almost whispered] Every sound you make Is so quiet You’re so fragile I’m afraid to touch But when I look into your eyes I see you So alive [Chorus — slightly warmer, still minimal] Twinkle, twinkle My little star I just want to hold you Forever in my arms So small My little star [Bridge — stripped back, nearly dry vocal] All my tears All my fears Are still here But I’m not afraid When I look into your eyes I see your whole life So alive [Final Chorus — gentle, no dramatic build] Twinkle, twinkle My little star I just want to hold you Forever in my arms So small My little star [Outro — instruments fall away] In this Quiet room Your first breath I look into your eyes And hold you close So small So small
