The night sky has never been quite the same since you went away I trace the stars to find you, my little girl All those years of dreaming, then you really went and did it Hard to believe you’re out there Looking up at me as I look back up at you The neighbor girl went to New York for school, settled down and stayed there Her parents see her at the holidays But I see you every night Looking up at me as I look back up at you I wish your mother could look up, too But it makes you seem so far, so it’s just too hard for her To look up at you as you look back up at her We can’t wait to see you again, but ‘till then I’ll trace the stars to find you, my little girl
