Starlight

Stars of love burn bright
Till they’re ready to die
The broken spend their nights
Staring at the sky

You, oh, you had a sad urge
To be wanted by fools
Welcoming girls that would be
Snoopin', troopin' enveloping your family jewels

You chose to grow your nose
But deep down you knew I knew
You knew I knew that
I’d up and run quicker
Than good boys could come
They said I was too good for you

Wake up little Suzie
It’s bad news when you hear a guy cry
You spilled the beans in January
Timed it perfectly after your granny died

You knew I wouldn’t shoot a man when he was down
Well done Pinocchio you told a lie
Why would you take advantage of a cut up heart
You’re such a vulnerable type

You said: I’m so lonely
Won’t you hold me?
I’m so lonely, come close baby hold me

Love is like starlight
See it when a star dies
It continues to shine
But its only old light

Oh, old light, it’s been dead
For a long time
Long time, with time, time

Stars of love burn bright
Till they’re ready to die
The broken spend their nights
Staring at the sky

If love enters your life
It leaves a stain inside your sky
This will lead you to believe
That it is still alive

But it is just old light
Completing it's last flight
Across a velvet night
Stars burn bright till they die

Like love bites in the sky
Love is like starlight
Love is starlight

I took all our favorite songs
Played them and I made them my own
I went to our favorite bars
And I drank in them alone

Woah, 'cause I’ve grown up a solitary soul
Sometimes I think it’s better on my own
I need time just to roam, roam, roam
Find one place I can call home

Love is like starlight
Even when a star dies
You can see it shine
But it’s only old light

Oh, old light, it’s been dead
For a long time
Long time, long time

Stars and love burn bright
Till they’re ready to die
The broken spend their nights
Staring at the sky

If love enters your life
It leaves a mark inside your sky
This will lead you to believe
That it is still alive

But it is just old light
Completing it's last flight
Across a velvet night
Stars burn bright till they die

Like love bites in the sky
Love is like starlight
Love is starlight
