FARAWAY STAR
(The Chordettes)

The Chordettes


Starlight, starbright first star I see tonight. 

Faraway, faraway, faraway star how did you ever get up where you are. 
I can get dizzy just looking above, you are as far as my faraway love. 

Faraway love, faraway love, who can be happy with faraway love. 
Wish that I may wish that I might have me the wish that I'm wishing tonight. 

Faraway, faraway, faraway star how did you ever get up where you are. 
I can get dizzy just looking above you are as far as my faraway love. 

Why must he seem distant from me even when we are as close as can be. 
Powerful star, wonderfully wide let me be seen by his faraway eye. 
When I am near, when I am near, couldn't he be more aware that I'm here. 
We're holding hands inches apart, show me the way to his faraway heart. 

Faraway,faraway, faraway star how did you ever get up where you are. 
I can get dizzy just looking above you are as far as my faraway love. 

Faraway, faraway, faraway star how did you ever get up where you are.
