I had a dream last night
A little girl was in the sky
She sat upon a silver moon
And watched the shooting stars go by
Looking left and looking right
She followed every trail of light
Making wishes, reaching higher
With the universe inside her
How did she get up there?
Was she searching for a sign?
Or chasing constellations
She had carried all this time
Little girl, glowing bright
Making wishes through the night
Tell me, how much higher can you be
Than floating through the galaxy?
Save a little wish for me
Maybe she had climbed that high
To leave the weight of Earth behind
All the words that made her smaller
All the truths that are hard to find
Maybe from that silver moon
She could finally see the truth
Every road that tried to break her
Only led her back to her roots
Little girl, glowing bright
You do not need to earn your light
There is courage in your song
You have been worthy all along
Save a little wish for me
There are days the world gets heavy
There are nights you lose your way
There are dreams you stop believing
When the light feels far away
But somewhere underneath the silence
Something in you still survives
A tiny spark that keeps on saying
You are still here
You are alive
Little girl, burning bright
You do not need to earn your light
Let your brave heart lead the way
You were never meant to fade
Save a little wish for me
For every time your heart was broken
For every word you left unspoken
For every time you lost your way
And still got up to face the day
For every dream you almost buried
Every weight you should not carry
Maybe hope is simply showing up
Believing you should not give up
So when the darkness fills the sky
Look for the light you keep inside
I think we all have somewhere hidden
A little girl who knows the way
Before the world could tell her who to be
Before she learned to be afraid
She is still reaching for the heavens
Still believing she can fly
Still making wishes without asking
If she deserves to touch the sky
Little girl in the sky
Now I think I know why
You were dancing where the planets spin
You went to find yourself again
Little girl, glowing bright
Carry all of us tonight
For every soul still learning to believe
There is more than what we see
And if you see a star go by
Save a little wish for me tonight
I woke beneath the morning glow
With traces of her light
Reminding me of where to go
And everything would be alright
I placed my feet back on the ground
I kept the stars that I had found
And somewhere in the waking light
I finally learned to see
The little girl among the stars
Had saved a wish for me
