Analysis of Not wander but stay
I wish the stars shine as bright as your eyes
Reflecting the secrets and wonders of the sky
Rarely do I ever want to say goodbye
And hope to never be the reason you cry
When we first met, face to face
I was transported to a utopia far away
To young to understand why my heart was that way
Thinking it’ll go, it grew stronger day by day
An astronaut I shall be when I grow up
Then finally in the the universe won’t seem far away
However to live with you is the only reason
That would convince me to return back and eventually…
Stay
