Stars and love burn bright Till they're ready to die The broken spend their nights Staring at the sky You, oh, you had a sad urge To be wanted by fools Welcoming those that would be Snoopin', troopin', enveloping your family jewels You chose to grow your nose 'Cause deep down you knew I knew You knew I knew that I'd up and run Quicker than you could come Said I was too good for you Wake up little Susie It’s bad news when you hear a guy cry You spilled the beans in January Timed it perfectly after your granny died (tut tut tut) You knew I wouldn’t shoot a man when he was down Well done Pinocchio you told a lie I wouldn't take advantage of a cut-up heart Such a vulnerable time You tell me: I'm so lonely Won’t you hold me? Stars shine, only But it's only Light Oh, old light, it’s been dead For a long time Long time, with time, time Stars and love burn bright Till they’re ready to die The broken spend their nights Staring at the sky Now it's time to bury the hatchet and bury it deep You've a massive heart But you're a fucked up kid and we sow what we reap Woah, 'cause we grew up as solitary souls Sometimes it’s better to be on your own I need time just to roam, roam, roam Find a place I can call home Love is like starlight Even when a star dies You can still see it shine But it’s only old light Oh, old light, it’s been dead For a long time Long time, long time Stars and love burn bright Till they’re ready to die The broken spend their nights Staring at the sky If love enters your life It leaves a stain inside the sky And this will lead you to believe That it is still alive But it is just old light Completing its last flight Across a velvet nights Stars burn bright till they die Love bites in the sky Love is like starlight Love is starlight
