When I'm lying, staring at the stars,
I see your face among them.
Shining brightly, full of cheer
Looking down on me.

I know I have disappointed you,
But please don't go away.
I'd do anything to make it up to you,
If only you would stay.

I think of you so much of the time,
Of how you used to be.
And sometimes I even pretend you're here,
Sitting next to me.

We used to laugh and talk together,
Passing away the hours.
But now I am so lonely
Without your loving touch.

I miss you so much, I wish you were here,
But I know that cannot be.
So please keep smiling down from above,
Smiling down on me.
