stars by dubstar
written by hillier
is it asking too much, to be given time,
to know these songs, and to sing them
is it asking too much, of my vacant smile,
and my laughing lies that bring them
but as the stars are going out,
and the stage is full of nothing
and the friends have all but gone,
for my life, my god, I'm singing
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind,
oh, watch the stars go out
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind
oh, watch the stars go out
is it asking too much, of my favorite friends,
to take these songs for real
is it asking too much, of my partner's hands,
to take these songs for real
but as the stars are going out,
and the stage is full of nothing
and the friends have all but gone,
for my life, my god, I'm singing
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind,
oh, watch the stars go out
(x2)
we'll take our hats outside,
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind,
oh, watch the stars go out
(x4)
oh, watch the stars go out
(x2)
(note: it is not necessarily "hats," but could be "house" or another word)
