Invisible to the naked eye 
We illuminate the dark night sky
Invisible to the naked eye
In those elusive moments before you sleep
As appointed, then we will meet
My hoof will tap at your windowpane
Reminding you to be young again
To look for the magic in stars above
and remember the spirits who send you love
Since you were born we have followed nigh
Waiting to show you how to fly
Take wing in your thoughts, you will find us there
All you need is to be aware
