Stars

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
We'll take our hats outside
We'll take our hats outside
Leave our lives behind
Oh, watch the stars go out
Oh, watch the stars go out
