Little sister,
 Playing hide and seek
 Even though mama told you I’m really gone
 If you miss me
 Sneak a peek at my diary
 Or read the peek-a-boo sky that lights the night
 I’ll say this once:

Light up the night,
 stardust!
 When it hurts inside
 read all the signs
 Follow
 It´s okay to feel down
 and just remember
 that nothing´s made to last
 I know you´re sad
 That too will pass, that too will pass

 In passing,
 Little sister
 Ignore local news
 [bad word] from trees we’ll never climb
 What a joke!
 They made me look so sad
 That bad bad lake’s okay; it washed my hair
 And the waves said:
Light up the night,
 stardust!
 When it hurts inside
 read all the signs
 Follow
 It´s okay to feel down
 and just remember
 that nothing´s made to last
 I know you´re sad
 That too will pass, that too will pass

 That too will pass
 That too will pass
 You’ll recall all that
 Till one day
 You too will pass.
