Lyrics:
[Verse 1] All alone wishing on stars Waiting for you to find me One sweet night I knew I would see A stranger who'd be my friend
[Chorus] When someone in the dark reaches out to you And touches off a spark that comes shining through It tells you never be afraid Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow Like it was written in the stars I knew My friend, my someone in the dark was you [Verse 2] Promise me we will always be Walking the world together Hand in hand where dreams never end My star secret friend and me
[Chorus] When someone in the dark reaches out to you And touches off a spark that comes shining through It tells you never be afraid Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow Look for the rainbow in the sky Oh I believe you and I Could never really say goodbye Wherever you may be I will look up and see Someone in the dark for me Wherever you may be I will look up and see Someone in the dark for me
[Verse 3] Though you are gone star far away Each time I see a rainbow I will remember being with you Smiles coming through my tears [Chorus] When someone in the dark reaches out to you And touches off a spark that comes shining through It tells you never be afraid Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow Look for the rainbow in the sky I believe you and I Could never really say goodbye Wherever you may be I will look up and see Someone in the dark for me Wherever you may be I will look up and see Someone in the dark for me
