WHERE ARE THEY?

Where are all the stars tonight?
Are they in heaven giving us light;
are they on earth giving us joy

What I would give
to see them once more

Friends so true
they made me smile

Friends so silent
I hardly knew them

All the while

seeing them chat
seeing them smile

I knew one who

walked the extra mile

to make others laugh
and made others cry

So many people –
so many stars out tonight
