Huh for some reason I'd never considered that fact that the songwriter would have no idea what a star consisted of. Just a mysterious light in the sky.

Interesting, I think of the lyrics as describing the way a baby or toddler feels when looking at the stars. They don’t know what those bright lights are yet, they just know they’re shiny and too high up to reach.
