I Always See Stars
That person who makes the world less lonely
Have you ever wondered...?
What the sky would look like without stars?
It would be dark…
It would feel lonely.
We'd still have the moon…
But I'd be lost without the stars.
They are always hard to see in the city…
But I know they're there.
I suppose that's true.
It has to be.
And if they weren't?
I would lose hope.
Wow, they mean that much to you?
They show me that just because I can't see something now doesn't mean I won't see it tomorrow.
Humm, I like that
…The stars make the night less lonely.
I don't think I need the stars…
You don't?
Not when I have you.
Me?
You're my star.
I am?
Well, you give me hope and make me feel less lonely.
I don't think that makes me a star…
Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not true.
I suppose.
You're a star to me. You've just forgotten how much you shine.
I like that.
