Dead ones and the living
We live closer to the earth
Never to the heavens
The stars are never far away
Stars are out tonight
They watch us from behind their shades
Jack and Kate and Brad
From hehind their tinted window stretch
Gleaming like blackened sunshine
Stars are never sleeping
Dead ones and the living
Waiting for the first move
Satyrs and their child wives
Waiting for the last move
Soaking up our primitive world
Stars are never sleeping
Dead ones and the living
Their jealousy's spilling down
The stars must stick together
We will never be rid of these stars
But I hope they live forever
And they know just what we do
That we toss and turn at night
They're waiting to make their moves
But the stars are out tongiht
Here they are upon the stairs
Sexless and not aware
They are the stars, they're dying for you
But I hope they live forever
They burn you with their radiant smiles
Trap you with their beautiful eyes
They're broke and shamed or drunk or scared
But I hope they live forever
Their jealousy's spilling down
The stars must stick together
We will never be rid of these stars
But I hope they live forever
And they know just what we do
That we toss and turn at night
They're waiting to make their moves on us
But the stars are out tonight
The stars are out tonight
The stars are out tonight
Stars are never sleeping Dead ones and the living We live closer to the earth Never to the heavens The stars are never far away Stars are out tonight They watch us from behind their shades Jack and Kate and Brad From hehind their tinted window stretch Gleaming like blackened sunshine Stars are never sleeping Dead ones and the living Waiting for the first move Satyrs and their child wives Waiting for the last move Soaking up our primitive world Stars are never sleeping Dead ones and the living Their jealousy's spilling down The stars must stick together We will never be rid of these stars But I hope they live forever And they know just what we do That we toss and turn at night They're waiting to make their moves But the stars are out tongiht Here they are upon the stairs Sexless and not aware They are the stars, they're dying for you But I hope they live forever They burn you with their radiant smiles Trap you with their beautiful eyes They're broke and shamed or drunk or scared But I hope they live forever Their jealousy's spilling down The stars must stick together We will never be rid of these stars But I hope they live forever And they know just what we do That we toss and turn at night They're waiting to make their moves on us But the stars are out tonight The stars are out tonight The stars are out tonight Explain Request ×
