The Little Star - June Christy

作曲：Connie Pearce/Arthur Miller

Once upon a time

There was a little star

Who couldn't grow

No matter how he tried

He was just a tiny spark

Sitting in his share of dark

A less determined star might have cried

Other stars were posing for astronomers

Or playing ring of stars around the moon

While they squandered all their light

The little star sat tight

And hoped and wished that he'd grow bigger soon

One dark night the word came through

Of a special job for a star to do

All the rest were out

Or tired

Or dim

And suddenly he knew it was up to him

Then all the hopes and wishes of a thousand years

Came bursting from the little star and showed

And he travelled through the night

In a magic stream of light

The brightest star the world has ever known

Somewhere in the sky

There is a little star

Who can't be seen no matter how we try

Getting ready to break through

When there's a job to do

The biggest

Little star

In the sky
