You're
The Stars
Virtual
people
In virtual
places
Fantasy
features
And make
believe faces
It was there
that I met you
Might as
well have been Mars
You're the
stars baby, the stars
It is there
that I'm with you
At the end
of each day
It's while
others are sleeping
That I come
out to play
But it's
hardly a game
When your
words can leave scars
You're the
stars baby, the stars
This may
sound kind of strange
But I've
found life again
Like my
head hangs out the window
Of some
runaway train
And I ache
to be with you
It's like
I'm trapped behind bars
You're the
stars baby, the stars
This place
is so crowded
A virtual
city of sin
Sometimes
it's like we're together
On the head
of a pin
Wish we
could just drive away
In our virtual
cars
You're the
stars baby, the stars
I know few
people here
I kind of
like it that way
I know you
don't feel the same
Guess it's
the one price I pay
But I'd
hate to be drowning
In a sea
of avatars
You're the
stars baby, the stars
Why does
time pass so quickly
When I'm
alone with you here
Why do I
always feel empty
When you
are nowhere near
Close my
eyes and I'm hearing
Soft, sad
singing guitars
You're the
stars baby, the stars
