I Live to Let You Shine

 If you'll be my star,

I'll be your sky.

You can hide underneath me and come out at night.

When I turn jet black

and you show off your light,

I'll live to let you shine.

I'll live to let you shine.

But you can sky-rocket away from me.

And never come back if you find another galaxy,

far from here,

with more room to fly.

just leave me your stardust to remember you by.

If you'll be my boat,

I'll be your sea.

The depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity.

Ebbing and flowing,

and pushed by a breeze.

I live to make you free.

I live to make you free.

But you can set sail to the west if you want to.

And past the horizon 'til I can't even see you.

Far from here,

where the beaches are wide,

just leave me your wake to remember you by.

To the people I love with the deep infinity of my being.

Namaste,

C H E Z
