Reach For the stars They say But stars were never meant to be reached Were never meant to be touched Reach They say You reach And they do not reach with you The stars have never felt so far away And maybe they’re meant to be that way Reach They say You reach And their eyes are full of judgement And when you burn You burn alone Reach They say You reach And they turn their faces away And when you fall You fall alone Reach For the stars They say For they have never reached They have never burned They have never fallen You reach And as you hit the ground They call you a shooting star Beautiful They say It’s a shame It didn’t Last Longer (For stars were never meant to be reached Were never meant to be touched By human hands And we are only human, after all)

Reach
Reach For the stars They say But stars were never meant to be reached Were never meant to be touched Reach They say You reach And they do not reach with you The stars have never felt so far away And maybe they’re meant to be that way Reach They say You reach And their eyes are full of judgement And when you burn You burn alone Reach They say You reach And they turn their faces away And when you fall You fall alone Reach For the stars They say For they have never reached They have never burned They have never fallen You reach And as you hit the ground They call you a shooting star Beautiful They say It’s a shame It didn’t Last Longer (For stars were never meant to be reached Were never meant to be touched By human hands And we are only human, after all)
