somewhere out there

My female owner attended a birthday party in the mountains. To get there, she had to navigate a long and windy road with no street lamps and overhanging trees. In the absence of light, the stars shone brightly and she was greeted with countless stars, twinkling in the sky. In light-polluted Singapore, the most she sees is Orion and a few other courtesy stars.

Here, she sees Orion shining so brightly and in closer proximity. What a wonder. And sentimental her started to think about the friends (and turtles!) she left behind in Singapore. Realising that they would also see Orion, she was reminded of the following song... yeah.. we are not so far away after all.

Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight
Someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight

Somewhere out there someone's saying a prayer
That we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there

And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true
