Reaching For The Stars

It was a long night, a long flight
Father came home, was ever so tired
I had my eyes up in the sky
And I knew I was getting higher higher

Father held me on his shoulders
The night grew old, was getting colder
Ice was right, like it was polar
Sun was gone, there was no solar

Father tired, get inside
But my hands reach ever so high
It was dark, so late at night
What was I trying to find

Had my hand on the moon
The only light that wasn't gloom
Father looked at me had no clue
Til he saw what I saw too
