It alone can illuminate the dark
A passion in my heart
That sets me far apart
My only fear is accomplishing things I hold dear
I’m getting older
Time has grown forever bolder
Soaring high as a kite just living my life
Wondering how long will the grains of sand flow
Through the hourglass
No one seems to know
I’ve come too far
To be just another shooting star
Ready as ever for flight
Please God, don’t let this star

Contributed By: jamesstockdale

I have an intense fire in my soul
It alone can illuminate the dark
A passion in my heart
That sets me far apart
My only fear is accomplishing things I hold dear
I’m getting older
Time has grown forever bolder
Soaring high as a kite just living my life
Wondering how long will the grains of sand flow
Through the hourglass
No one seems to know
I’ve come too far
To be just another shooting star
Ready as ever for flight
Please God, don’t let this star
Burn out tonight
