Lyrics for For The Stars by Elvis Costello:
| | | Artist: | Elvis Costello |
| | Album: | For The Stars (W/ Anne Sofie Von Otter | | Track: | For The Stars | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 70 | | | | Lyrics: | The stars were so much brighter then,
they dim and die
So why pretend
the sky goes on
forever.
But if they fade as science teaches,
Poets lose the power of
speech
waste paper, ink and feather
If I'd taken up the trumpet
as I should
have done
Then I wouldn't be
always losing sleep
while I'm trying to make this
rhyme
For the stars were so much
they were so much brighter then
If I couldn't
put a price on your head
What's the use of me trying
for the stars?
The morning
comes
the days are just the time between
until the dusk
when we can be
together
If I'd taken up the drums
and I could play in time.
If I had the
power
Would I be wondering how
I'm ever going to be write this down.
For the
stars wree so much
They were so much brighter then
If I couldn't put a price on your
head
Then what's the use of me trying
for the stars | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
