Stars

I was never one for singing what I really feel

Except tonight, I'm bringing everything I know that's real

Stars, they come and go, they come fast they come slow

They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze

And all you see is glory

Hey, but it gets lonely there when there's no one here to share

We can shake it away if you'll hear a storyPeople lust for fame like athletes in a game

We all break our collarbones and come up swinging

Some of us are crowned, some of us are drowned

And some are lost and never found, but most have seen it all

They live their lives in sad cafes and music halls

They always come up singingSome make it when they're young

Before the world has done it's dirty job

And later on, someone will say

"You've had your day, you must make way"

But they'll never know the pain of living with a name you never owned

Or the many years forgetting what you know too well

That the ones who gave the crown have been let down

You try to make amends without defendingPerhaps pretending you never saw the eyes

Of grown men of twenty five

Who all followed as you walked and asked for autographs

Or kissed you on the cheek

And you never could believe they really loved you

Some make it when they're old

Perhaps they have a soul they're not afraid to bare

Or perhaps there's nothing thereStars, they come and go, they come fast, they come slow

They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze

And all you see is glory

But those who've seen it all

Live all their lives in sad cafes and music halls

We always have a storySome women have a body men will want to see

So they put it on display

And some people play a fine guitar

I can listen to them play all day

Some ladies really move across a stage

And gee, they sure can dance

But I guess I could learn how if I gave it half a chanceBut I always feel so funny when my body tries to soar

And I seem to always worry about missing the next chord

So I guess there isn't anything to put up on display

Except the tunes and whatever else I say

And anyway, that isn't really what I meant to say

I just meant to tell a story and I live from day to dayStars, they come and go, they come fast, they come slow

They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze

And all you see is glory

But those who've seen it all

Live all their lives in sad cafes and music halls

We always have a story

So if you don't lose patience with my fumbling around

I'll come up singing for you even when I'm down

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
