When The Stars Fall© Lyrics

three sets

in a box car

with a ticket to ride across America

and a license to drive off a kickstart heart

five years

on a rented tux

and a magazine left on the dashboard

call you up on a hunch just to catch your thoughts



and i said i'll be your best friend

and this is just the start

of something much more beautiful



when the stars fall

well it's over

and we're gone

when the street lights stand around us

fade with dawn

i'll be standing there beside you

i'll be standing there to remind you



i wanna get a piece of the action

while the iron's still hot

i'm convinced that the game's been played just the same

but we're playin the large part

have you ever been

on a spaceship

guided like a rocket on a trip to Mars

where the ships just a plain

and the plain's just the same

as a missile guided wish built on a billion stars
