My Special Star
I've never seen a more beautiful sight
For there's over a million stars in the sky tonight
As I hold my hands and there's sweat in my palms
I must find my special
star, It's name is Shaun
Oh, I see it...it's shining so bright!
Look at the way it twinkles for me tonight!
I
think I'll stay out here from now til dawn
Under my special star, It's name is Shaun
I'll think of the good times that we shared
and all the times you
showed you cared
Many times I'll laugh and many times I'll smile
Thinking of you all
the while
I'll think of the times between you and I
and yes, sometimes I'm going
to cry
I'll think of what you had to go through
and all the dreams that you
persued
Knowing that you truly gave your all
Your heart was never ever small
Your death has touched many hearts
and brought people together that
was apart
I saw the pain of fathers and mothers
I saw the sorrow of sisters
and brothers
We've all come together to mourn in peace
There's more people than
you know, to say the least
Everyone knows how special you are
and forever do you dwell in our
hearts
God counts the stars and calls them all by name
There are over a million
but not one the same
And now joining the heavens is the one in my heart
His name is Shaun
and he's my special star
