Lyrics
In the sky shines a star
Spaces near and far
Callin' out who you are
And smilin' in the night
Star bright, starlight (alright), beam across the sky
Fallin', callin', can you tell me why?
Star bright, starlight, mighty light to see
Shinin', smilin' down on you and me
Star hides from the rain
It turns against the pain
Foolin' many in the game
While smilin' in the night
Star bright, starlight (hey!), beam across the sky
Fallin', callin', can you tell me why?
Star bright, starlight (alright), mighty light to see
Shinin', smilin' down on you and me
I can feel the dark, take the night apart
But then the stars come out to lift my heart
Believing there's a star for everyone
Makes it easier to recall
That together for the children of the world
There's a star smiling for us all
Star bright, starlight (hey!), mighty light to see
Shinin', smilin' down on you and me
Star bright, starlight, mighty light to see
Shinin', smilin' down on you and me
Star, shining high
Cultivating my desire
Graceful in the sky
And smiling in the night
Star bright, starlight, beam across the sky
Fallin', callin', can you tell me why?
Star bright, starlight, mighty light to see
Shinin', smilin' down on you and me
Writer(s): Maurice White, Allee Willis, Eddie Del Barrio
