A Pale Star

In the night, deep and far
you search the sky to see
there twinkles a pale star.

Imagine, from afar,
it lights  the sky and  sea,

in the night, deep and far.

Put  the star in a jar,

 the kids will watch with  glee.

There twinkles a pale star.

It shines, a gold  dinar,
its face so sweet, so wee;
in the night, deep and far.

It cries when there's a war
and wanes at hour three.
There twinkles a pale star.

Play the song, Night Guitar
to a pale star, that's me.
In the night, deep and far
there twinkles a pale star.
