Star-Filled Night
[Verse 1]
My head keeps turning in the night,
With all those restless thoughts inside.
As I walked out the bar, I saw a passing shooting-star,
He filled my eye with pure compassion, when I die will I shine like him?
I don't know where I am, I don't know what I want,
I think I need to be inside, a warm warm home.
Passing by the same, streets and parks again,
Hello Lady, do you have a matchstick for my hands?
[Chorus 1]
Stars are shining in the sky,
You don't know where to draw the line.
No, you can't swim through the tide,
Cause all you dreamed and hoped that night,
Just fades into the dark,
Just fades into the dark.
C’mon!
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 2]
The cigarette won't burn, though the fire shines so bright,
From day to day I feel alone, just like the shades at night.
Every step I take, on the cold, grey cement,
Reminds me that I need, a warm and helping hand.
To hold me when I'm old, cry when I am cold,
To read the letters that I've thrown into the ocean blue.
After all these years, these stars remained the same,
The taxi-cab I called, brings me home to dream again.
[Chorus 2]
Stars are shining in the sky,
You don't know where to draw the line.
No, you can't swim through the tide,
Cause all you dreamed and hoped that night,
Just fades into the dark,
Just fades into the dark.
C’mon!
[Instrumental Solo]
[Bridge]
Now I wake up in my bed and feel the hole in my head.
When I close my eyes the colors start to scream at me!
Don't you see, don't you see.
[Chorus 2]
Stars are shining in the sky,
You don't know where to draw the line.
No, you can't swim through the tide,
Cause all you dreamed and hoped that night,
Just fades into the dark,
Just fades into the dark.
C’mon!
[Instrumental Solo]
