Starlet

to moonn6pence from shootingstar




you know I loved you with all my heart
every one of my trembling cells
I know I loved you till I went blind
and as much as I could ever love myself
every time I close my eyes
every time when I think about you
I see the good, I see the bad
I feel the pain, the fear you left with me

I said that I´d like to know
the darker side you bare within you
we´ll, now I have, I wish I could
switch it off with a remote control
I fear the times when I get dark
when my breath is heavy and my eyes turn black
I praise the day when I´ll catch up
with life and time and love as I remember it

oh why can´t I believe in you?
and why won´t you just tell the truth?
oh why can´t I believe in you?
and why can´t I just stop and let it go?

a flash and a deafening sound
bright light, loud crack
in the corner of my eye
you´re still the one you where when I met you

so why can´t I believe in you?
and why won´t you just tell the truth?
oh why can´t I believe in you?
and why can´t I just stop and let it go?

It's late at night
And this town is quiet
My love lives in the city
Just by the old church

She said she wants to leave this town
But she's too tired
And she think she´s too old

Is it me or this town that brings you down?
Is it me or the modern life that brings you down?

You got to have faith in yourself
Don't give up, just work really hard
Don´t listen to your bad thoughts
Or the gloomy people around you
They just stand in your way
SO THROW THEM AWAY!

I know what you been through
And I guess that you don't want to be there again
So come, please come with me
to new places, people, homes
A new life

Three years ago you saved me from
Going under the ground
So let me do the same for you
But please tell me if I stand in your way
Or if you do not feel the same for me anymore
JUST TELL ME WHAT IT IS?

how come these streets are full
of all these smiling people?
the sun shines too bright
and all that flows my mind is… oh..

let me sleep alone
I don´t want to participate
let me be on my own
I don´t want anything from you

I think that I´ll walk home
there´s nothing for me here
this place is not the same
but it´s all that I can go to
and it´s… yours

I could tell you about nights that would bend your bones
I could tell you about the sound of bent faith
and how it breaks

I hung around till I was six
I hung around till I was six
so many things that one can do
so many things that one can do

I want to come home to a place where I am known
a place where I can feel kind of whole

»don´t you bring all that up
it´s ancient history
take aim at tomorrow
and don´t stay in all day
the sun is up
it´s beautiful
meet some friends
have some fun«

oh you know me too well
oh you know me too well
so many dreams that one can hold
so many dreams that one can hold

if I got to chose
a new start of my days
a brand new loved one
I´d choose you

»don´t you bring all that up
it´s ancient history
take aim at tomorrow
and don´t stay in all day
the sun is up
it´s beautiful
meet some friends
have some fun
don´t look back
carry on«

it could be years it could be weeks
that I´ve tried to maintain the feeling
that everything´s OK

and I´m so tired
oh so tired of explaining
it never takes away
never takes away that feeling

I know I will never be able
to keep these things at a distance

let the sun shine in
let the sun shine through
no times for sorrow (a brighter tomorrow)
I´m through with you

let´s just sit
let´s just sit here waiting
for something better
for something better in the morning
a heavenly action or just the postman
as long as it´s something
as long as it´s anything at all

we just sit here waiting
we don't know what to do

tell me more brilliant ideas
»you and me against the world«
what´s to fear?
there´s nothing, really
(it´s only life I fear)

there is nothing wrong with you
it´s just in my head
there is nothing wrong with you
it´s just in my head

and to save myself I only need to
keep my eyes wet
to save myself I only need to
keep my eyes shut

not alone

sometimes the sky looks dirty
just before it rains
afterwards, the sun falls on my feet

your body
I hardly remember how it feels
dunno how we looked before we fell asleep
(asleep...)

believe me
I don't want to feel the way I do
and I know you need someone, too
to feel you
one who'll let his lips just light your eyes
someone to make you feel just ilke floating

have you ever read "The Servant"?
have you ever sang along
to the lines of "Hand In Glove"
as if they were your own?
do you wear the ring i gave you?
have you seen the photograph
of you and me in paris?

oh, look into my eyes
say I did not love you
say that I was cruel
ask me to believe you
claim that I'm a fool
sure, I do forgive you
but how will I forget...?

Yes i'm moving on
I'm tired and won't be seen here again
You get used to be alone
But i can't stand it without a friend
I was so happy with you
So let me in
But will things ever change
Although i'm far away from you
I don't know, i don't know
Do you remember that night
In your bedroom
When we almost fell in love
God it helped me for a while
But i'm not so sure about it now
Only time can tell
But i know my luck
(far too well)
But will things ever change
Although i'm far away from you
I don't know
But i probabaly still love you

Me and my girl we had a blast
It happens a lot before summer
Now I'm drinking on my own
I am miserable and alone
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12 13 14 15

If I had a silver sportscar
I would head for Los angeles
If I had a driver's license
I'd be by your side in a second

By your side I'd sit and wait
In the western sunny sand
By your side I'd sit and wait
Will you ever make a move?

If I had a silver sportscar
I would head for Los angeles
If I had a driver's license
I'd be by your side in a second

I'd be by your side in a second
I'd be by your side in a second

Let me stay five more minutes
Let me have some sleep
Among your clothes
The ones you've been wearing
Let me stay the night out
In your bed
You don't have to lie down with me
I've just been missing the scent of you
Please don't think i'm weired
Don't you know me?
Just let me have your t-shirt with me
When i go
It could turn my nights to
Something good again
That security of your scent
I've given up the things we had
I gave it up so easily
It took weeks for me to miss
The scent of you
I'm afraid that i want it back

Sometimes i don't really think
That you're the one
That brought me light and understanding
The way you look at me now
Is not of the loving kind
That i can tell
When you were in my age
Did you ever believe
That you'd end up like this
If you think that you are
Making me feel good
I must say you're wrong
But i still just can't forget
How you made me feel
So useless and wrong
A hundred wasted hours in that house
Well it makes me feel quite angry
And i'm so tired of these internal affairs
They should have been left behind
A long time ago
It makes me wonder if i'll ever be alright

You, you thought you had it on. yeah.
You thought you were cool,
But you're not even close.
Baby, you've got to get it on. yeah
You've got to get next to me
Before this disco is over.
Oh no! time is running out now.
Then you go home.
Your mother is waiting outside.
Oh god! the last song is on now.
It's the power of love.
You've got to ask me for a dance.
Because i am much to shy
And low.
