Template:For The Stars (song)

The stars were so much brighter then

They dim and die

So why pretend the sky goes on forever

But if they fade as science teaches

Poets lose the power of speech

Waste paper, ink and feather

If I'd taken up the trumpet as I should have done

Then I wouldn't be always losing sleep

While I'm trying to make this rhyme

For the stars were so much

They were so much brighter then

If I couldn't put a price on your head

What's the use of me trying for the stars?

The morning comes, the days are just

The time between until the dusk

When we can be together

If I'd taken up the drums and I could play in time

If I had the power, would I be wondering how

I'm ever going to write this down

For the stars were so much

They were so much brighter then

If I couldn't put a price on your head

Then what's the use of me trying for the stars?
