| [00:02.890] |
Stars, they come and go, they come fast they come slow |
| [00:07.540] |
They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze |
| [00:13.560] |
And all you see is glory |
| [00:17.530] |
But it gets lonely there when there's no one there to share |
| [00:23.220] |
You can shake it away, if you'll hear a story |
| [00:32.250] |
People lust for fame like athletes in a game |
| [00:41.260] |
They break out collarbones and come up swinging |
| [00:48.420] |
Some of them are downed |
| [00:51.450] |
Some of them are crowned |
| [00:54.370] |
Some are lost and never found |
| [00:59.500] |
But most have seen it all |
| [01:04.690] |
They live their lives in sad cafes and music halls |
| [01:15.580] |
And they always have a story |
| [01:24.230] |
Some make it when they're young |
| [01:29.830] |
Before the world has done its dirty job |
| [01:35.030] |
And later on someone will say |
| [01:38.200] |
"You've had your day, now you must make way" |
| [01:47.510] |
But they'll never know the pain of living with a name you never owned |
| [01:54.020] |
Or the years forgetting what you know too well |
| [01:59.210] |
That you gave the crown have been let down |
| [02:03.230] |
You try to make amends without defending |
| [02:12.680] |
Perhaps pretending you never saw the eyes of young men in twenty-five |
| [02:26.910] |
Who follow as you walk and ask for autographs |
| [02:34.430] |
And kiss you on the cheek and you never really could believe they really loved you |
| [02:46.190] |
Some make it when they're old |
| [02:52.660] |
(Perhaps they have a soul they're not afraid to bare or perhaps there's nothing there) |
| [03:08.740] |
But anyway, that isn't really what I meant to say |
| [03:13.800] |
I meant to tell a story, that I live from day to day |
| [03:22.610] |
Stars, they come and go, they come fast they come slow |
| [03:29.100] |
They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze |
| [03:36.310] |
And you always all you see is glory |
| [03:42.070] |
But if you don't mind being patience with my fumbling around |
| [03:48.970] |
I'll come up singing for you, even though I'm down |
| [04:05.450] |
|
