Steal Your Lucky Star

If I could

Reach through the distance

Just for a moment

And touch you

 

If you could

Allow yourself

The pleasure to feel

For that moment until

The moment was gone

 

Then you could let all your walls

Swallow the hole again

Leave you to yourself again

Or whatever

Just don't be frightened

 

You go as far

As your own star

 

If I told you I envy you

And the life you have all around you

If it looked like I wanted to steal

Your lucky star

Hitch-hike a ride

In your lucky car

Just don't be frightened

 

I know we only go far

When we follow our own star
