The stars are starving
Performing to the tempo of perfection
Dependent on reaction
Vulnerable to her praise or rejection
How long can these stars hold on
They starve and starve
Throb and throb
Before they tremble and fall
Let down the disguise
Love can answer the why
They’ve been baking
Out in the afternoon
Waiting to be blown
By the breath of you
Oh stars, oh stars
They shine, they shine
Like a Big Dipper
Chasing neon moons
