[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]
