(Verse 1)
In the quiet of the night,
when the world is fast asleep,
I look up to the heavens,
secrets that they keep.

A billion tiny diamonds,
scattered in the black,
Each one a distant memory,
never looking back.

Oh, the stars,
they shimmer softly,
in their cosmic dance,
Whispering of wonders,
given half a chance.

(Chorus)
And how they shine,
a beacon bright,
across the endless void,
Reflecting all the feelings,
time has not destroyed.

Like a hope that flickers,
when the world feels cold and gray,
Guiding every lost soul,
lighting up the way.

Oh, the stars and how they shine,
a promise from above,
A canvas painted brightly,
with strokes of endless love.

(Verse 2)
Sometimes in the darkness,
shadows start to grow,
Doubts begin to whisper,
quiet and slow.
But then I see the starlight,
piercing through the gloom,
A gentle, steady reminder,
chasing out the room.

For in that steady glimmer,
a warmth begins to bloom,
Dispelling all the worries,
conquering the doom.

(Chorus)
And how they shine,
a beacon bright,
across the endless void,
Reflecting all the feelings,
time has not destroyed.

Like a hope that flickers,
when the world feels cold and gray,
Guiding every lost soul,
lighting up the way.

Oh, the stars and how they shine,
a promise from above,
A canvas painted brightly,
with strokes of endless love.

(Bridge)
From constellations ancient,
to the nebula's soft grace,
There's a magic in their brilliance,
time cannot erase.

And in that grand design,
a simple truth I find,
That even in the vastness,
true connection's intertwined.

(Chorus)
And how they shine,
a beacon bright,
across the endless void,
Reflecting all the feelings,
time has not destroyed.

Like a hope that flickers,
when the world feels cold and gray,
Guiding every lost soul,
lighting up the way.

Oh, the stars and how they shine,
a promise from above,
A canvas painted brightly,
with strokes of endless love.

(Outro)
So let the stars remind us,
as they glimmer from afar,
Of the light within our spirits,
no matter who we are.

May we always find our shine,
and share it with the rest,
Wrapped in gentle moments,
of eternal love confessed.
