Irreplaceable

Have you ever seen a star cry

While it shines in the brightness

Of the full blue moon

No tears of sorrow

No anger

No grief

But the warming feeling

Of a welcome back home

To know that you will never

Be let go

Walked away

Or pushed aside

Like heat radiating

Through the night

You always tell me

To hold on tight

You are a runner

With the patience of many

To hold me close

When I am weary

You challenge the mighty

But cherish the gold

The only kind

That glows from the soul

You are my freedom

My one-way street

The life I forgot

When I wandered off beat

Away from my heart

Away from my soul

But you always know

When I make it home

To wipe the tears

Of the crying star
