Lyrics

STAR



Verse 1
Carry me away to the memory of those unforgotten years
When we first met I would not have guessed it would lead to all these tears.
We were young and life was as beautiful as our uncorrupted dreams.
You, my laughing, loving child. Golden hair about you streamed.



Chorus #1
You’re a star, born to rise, to burn deep in my eyes,
Where my memory will never forget your flame.
Yet whether you’re there or not ,or if you burn out,
Would it matter or would nothing even change?



Verse 2
Can no one explain what happened to the glow of land & sea.
Did I miss something? Did all life’s magic leave, or did it just leave me?
Our hopes and our dreams were soon exchanged to pay the price of our food & bed.
And on looking back, were they ever there?
Could we have been misled? Could we have been misled?


Chorus #2
Once a star, born to rise, burns deep in your eyes,
Where your memory can never forget its flame,
Whether it’s there or not or, if it burns out,
The joy it leaves will remain.


Verse 3/bridge
No nothing will convince me love was a vision doomed too fade.
I’ll find that hope no one could break.
It’s only been mislaid, only been mislaid, only been mislaid.


Chorus #3
I’m a star, born to rise, to burn deep in your eyes,
Where your memory will never forget my flame
Yet whether I’m here or not ,or if I burn out,
Does it matter or does nothing even change?


Repeat chorus #2
