And I'd fold each shining point
into an origami castle
fit for a queen, fit for you
and perhaps... me too
I, a majestic creature of the sky
You, an empty-faced child on a quilt
Look, look, at what I built
I'll use each star as a stepping stone
to meet you in this world
so you don't have to be alone
and I don't have to feel like I am
Place your hands on these walls.. can you feel my love?
Stand on your balcony, stare at the sky up above
My gentle playmate, is this better than the empty world you knew?
Look around at your origami castle, I made it for you
