The girl with the stars in her eyes Keeps light glistening in deep winter skies The girl with the stars in her eyes Dances in the moonlight..reaches for the prize The girl with the stars in her eyes Nurtures the hope that others let die The girl with the stars in her eyes Feels the strength of the ocean... the pull of tides The girl with the stars in her eyes Finds a teaspoon full of truth in a world full of lies Karen Shaw Matteson © 2004

Ideals are like stars;
you will not succeed in touching them with your hands,
but like the seafaring man on the desert of waters,
you choose them as your guides,
and following them, you reach your destiny.
