(lyrics and music by James Seals and Brian Whitcomb, 1980)

From the album THE LONGEST ROAD (1980)

People get a little to loose They forget, they abuse
Well, people get a little too tight, and it ain't right
You're in your car, driving too fast You're pushing hard, just trying to get past
Oh and they just don't care about the little white lies Yeah, they'll unwind
Oh, I don't know if it's wrong or it's right Oh, I only know the feeling tonight
Too loose, too tight Where is the light?

You're in your house, just trying to be cool The radio's on by the swimming pool
Oh and your people get, say you're a-movin' to slow Now where do you go?
Stars, they only try to come out at night [And wars that no one ever wants to fight?]
Too loose, too tight Where is my light? Where is my light?

Oh, you're in a bad way You know I can hear you call
Ah the shadow's great, the rain is about to fall
Oh and you try to rest, too much to beat it all Lose it all
Stars, they only try to come out at night [And wars that no one ever wants to fight?]
Too loose, too tight Where is the light? Stars

Stars, they only want to come out at night Stars, they only come to fill up the night Stars, stars
Stars, they only want to come out at night Stars, they only come to fill up the night Stars, stars
