[00:13.48] | I was never one for singing |
[00:19.55] | What I really feel |
[00:26.15] | Except tonight I'm bringing |
[00:31.35] | Everything I know that's real |
[00:38.77] | Stars, they come and go |
[00:43.64] | They come fast and slow |
[00:47.28] | They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze |
[00:51.47] | And all you see is glory |
[01:02.43] | Hey, but it gets loney there |
[01:06.30] | When there's no one here to share |
[01:11.21] | We can shake it away |
[01:16.25] | If you'll hear a story |
[01:25.64] | People lust for fame |
[01:28.78] | Like athletes in a game |
[01:32.99] | We all break our collarbones |
[01:35.31] | And come up swinging |
[01:37.24] | Some of us are downed |
[01:40.70] | Some of us are crowned |
[01:43.22] | And some of are lost and never found |
[01:46.83] | But most have seen it all |
[01:51.49] | They live their lives |
[01:52.97] | In sad cafes and music halls |
[01:59.17] | They always come up singing |
[02:06.32] | Some make it when they're young |
[02:09.80] | Before the world has done it's dirty job |
[02:13.47] | And later on, someone will say |
[02:16.12] | "You've had your day, you must make way." |
[02:24.13] | But they'll never know the pain |
[02:28.14] | Of living with a name you never owned |
[02:33.47] | Or the many years forgetting |
[02:35.52] | What you know too well |
[02:39.97] | That the ones who gave the crown |
[02:42.42] | Have been let down |
[02:44.86] | You try to make amends without defending |
[02:54.20] | Perhaps pretending you never saw the eyes |
[02:59.89] | Of grown men of twenty-five |
[03:04.80] | Who all followed as you walked |
[03:07.24] | And asked for autographs |
[03:08.19] | Or kissed you on the cheek |
[03:11.36] | And you never can believe |
[03:13.99] | They really loved you |
[03:17.72] | Some make it when they're old |
[03:22.73] | Perhaps they have a soul |
[03:25.16] | They're not afraid to bare |
[03:30.16] | Or perhaps there's nothing there |
[03:39.12] | Stars, they come and go |
[03:43.27] | They come fast, they come slow |
[03:46.30] | They go like the last light of the sun |
[03:50.11] | All in a blaze. And all you see is glory |
[04:00.71] | But those who've seen it all |
[04:05.55] | Live out their lives |
[04:06.72] | In sad cafes and music halls |
[04:13.23] | They always have a story |
[04:21.18] | Some women have a body |
[04:23.32] | Men will want to see |
[04:27.70] | So they put it on display |
[04:29.80] | And some people play a fine guitar |
[04:34.47] | I could listen to them play all day |
[04:41.26] | Same ladies really move across a stage |
[04:44.15] | And, gee, they sure can dance |
[04:50.95] | I guess I could learn how |
[04:55.50] | If I gave it half a chance |
[04:59.95] | But I always feel so funny |
[05:03.20] | When my body tries to soar |
[05:06.75] | And I always seem to worry |
[05:09.83] | About missing the next chord |
[05:14.26] | So, I guess there isn't anything |
[05:16.78] | To put out on display |
[05:21.32] | Except the tunes |
[05:26.29] | And whatever else I say |
[05:30.91] | And anyway, that isn't really |
[05:34.94] | What I meant to say |
[05:39.99] | I just meant to tell a story |
[05:43.79] | And I live from day to day |
[05:48.20] | Stars, they come and go |
[05:52.30] | They come fast, they come slow |
[05:55.74] | They go like the last light of the sun |
[05:59.92] | All in a blaze |
[06:05.76] | And all you see is glory |
[06:11.91] | But those who've seen it all |
[06:16.51] | Live out their lives |
[06:17.55] | In sad cafes and music halls |
[06:19.92] | We always have a story |
[06:24.00] | So, if you don't lose patience |
[06:32.77] | With my fumbling around |
[06:37.89] | I'll come up singing for you |
[06:43.37] | Even when I'm down |
