Songtext Starlight Marina And The Diamonds

Starlight

You, oh you
Had a sad urge to be wanted by fools
Welcoming those that would be
Snoopin' troupin' enveloping your family jewels
You chose to grow your nose
Cause deep down you knew, I knew, you knew, I knew
That I'd have been wrong 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 spilt the beans in jail
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
Up it's only light
Old light, it's been dead for a long time
Long time
With time, time

Stars of love look bright
Till they're ready to die
The broken spend their lives
Staring at the sky

Now it's time

Bury the hatchet
And bury it deep
You've a massive heart
But you're 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
Old light, it's been dead for a long time
Time

With time, time

Stars of love burn bright
Till they're ready to die
The broken spend their lives
Staring at the sky

Oh, it is just old light
Completing its last flight
Across the velvet nights
Burn bright till they die
The love lights in the sky
Love is like starlight

Love is starlight
