Seems I was born unlucky
I've got no money
And hand-me-down dreams
Love escapes me
But I need it so much
I came close to loving
But you ran away
Will I see you again?
I need to see you again

Looking up at the stars in the sky
I wonder if you see them too
I want you to see them too
Beauty abounds, but it's lost on me

Love lost, that's how it goes
You were so good to me
I need you here
I never see you anymore
Where'd you go?
I try to call
But that's no good
I just get that stupid machine
I need to hear your voice

Looking up at the stars in the sky
I wonder if you see them too
I want you to see them too
Beauty abounds, but it's lost on me

All I ever seem to get
Are those goddam sad looks
Mutual friends say it's okay
But their words fall
Like tiny pindrops
In rush hour traffic
I need to see you smile again
Can't you smile for me?
Please grant me that

Looking up at the stars in the sky
I wonder if you see them too
I want you to see them too
Beauty abounds, but it's lost on me

Yeah, well, okay
Maybe it's better this way
Maybe it was never meant to be
But that doesn't ease the pain
Don't think I'll ever be over you
I have to see you again
I need to hear your voice
Gotta look into your eyes
Just once more before I die
Maybe it's better this way
Maybe it was never meant to be
Beauty abounds, but it's lost on me
