[00:03.925]Stars, they come and go, they come fast they come slow
[00:09.452]They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze
[00:14.581]And all you see is glory
[00:18.877]But it gets lonely there when there's no one there to share
[00:24.295]You can shake it away, if you'll hear a story
[00:33.339]People lust for fame like athletes in a game
[00:42.631]They break out collarbones and come up swinging
[00:49.667]Some of them are downed
[00:52.637]Some of them are crowned
[00:55.748]Some are lost and never found
[01:00.654]But most have seen it all
[01:06.578]They live their lives in sad cafes and music halls
[01:17.424]And they always have a story
[01:25.703]Some make it when they're young
[01:31.149]Before the world has done its dirty job
[01:36.842]And later on someone will say
[01:39.354]"You've had your day, now you must make way"
[01:48.362]But they'll never know the pain of living with a name you never owned
[01:55.419]Or the years forgetting what you know too well
[02:00.473]That you gave the crown have been let down
[02:04.493]You try to make amends without defending
[02:13.982]Perhaps pretending you never saw the eyes of young men in twenty-five
[02:28.186]Who follow as you walk and ask for autographs
[02:35.581]And kiss you on the cheek and you never really could believe they really loved you
[02:47.221]Some make it when they're old
[02:53.776](Perhaps they have a soul they're not afraid to bare or perhaps there's nothing there)
[03:10.276]But anyway, that isn't really what I meant to say
[03:15.871]I meant to tell a story, that I live from day to day
[03:24.098]Stars, they come and go, they come fast they come slow
[03:30.526]They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze
[03:37.681]And you always all you see is glory
[03:44.228]But if you don't mind being patience with my fumbling around
[03:50.753]I'll come up singing for you, even though I'm down
