Is that a wishing star I see,
high up in the sky?
Shining down upon the earth,
Lighting up the night.
The only thing I can think of right now.
Is a family to love so dear.
One that would take me home with them,
And wipe away my tears.
Maybe a sister, or brother, and
A grandma and grandpa too.
I would love them all so much,
I’d hardly know what to do.
So wishing star, up in the sky,
Please grant my wish tonight.
Take me far from the lonely room,
Give me wings that I might take flight.

This is very beautiful, two weeks ago me and my mother went to an adoption center and adopted a little girl (8 years old) Her parent were using drugs so she was taken away when she was 3 years. I love this one...
