Lirieke: Pete Seeger. Starlight, Starbright.
Starlight, starbright, first star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight.
That always may your love be shining bright
Just like that first star that I see tonight.
Star peace, green peace, surely the wars will cease,
We'll find a way, there'll come a day,
When people every where will say
Forever let us put an end to war
Upon this one world that we're working for.
Star song, love song, I hope it won't be long
Before you're home and in my arms;
Then we'll both be safe from harm
And then we'll know our love is shining bright
Just like that first star I see tonight.
Starlight, starbright, first star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight.
That always may your love be shining bright
Just like that first star that I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight.
That always may your love be shining bright
Just like that first star that I see tonight.
Star peace, green peace, surely the wars will cease,
We'll find a way, there'll come a day,
When people every where will say
Forever let us put an end to war
Upon this one world that we're working for.
Star song, love song, I hope it won't be long
Before you're home and in my arms;
Then we'll both be safe from harm
And then we'll know our love is shining bright
Just like that first star I see tonight.
Starlight, starbright, first star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight.
That always may your love be shining bright
Just like that first star that I see tonight
Seeger, Pete
