Title: Distant Star

She dances in photographs hanging on my wall
The sweet smelling forecast says
it won't rain again until the fall 
so hold your head up
and sing to me like you did before
because we're all fleeting figures
and you've got to learn to share it all

Hold on to me 
cause I wouldn't steer you wrong
When the waves in the sea 
seem to pull you too strong

Of all the stars in the sky
that light up the coast 
as distant as you are 
you always shine the most

I know things are distressing now
and I've changed in certain ways
And things I've said make no sense
when you remove them from the page
But listen to me when I tell you 
that I'm going to be alright 
as long you are there for me 
on those long and cold November nights

Hold on to me 
cause I might go astray
when the winds from the west 
start to push me away

And even though the wind is strong
and my grip is not the same
We can always hold our hands
until the storm blows away
