Stars Lyrics – Barbara Cook
Singer: Barbara Cook
Title: Stars
Stars, they come and go
They come fast or slow
They go like the last light of the sun
All in a blaze
And all you see is glory
Hey, but it gets lonely there
When there’s no one here to share
We can shake it away
If you’ll hear a story
People lust for fame
Like athletes in a game
We break our collarbones
And come up swinging
Some of us are downed
Some of us are crowned
And some arе lost and never found
But most have seen it all
Thеy live their lives
In sad cafés and music halls
They always come up singing
Some make it when they’re young
Before the world has done its dirty job
And later on, someone will say
“You’ve had your day
Now you must make way”
Some make it when they’re old
Perhaps they have a soul
They’re not afraid to bare
Or perhaps there’s nothing there
Stars, they come and go
They come in fast, they come slow
They go like the last light of the sun
All in a blaze
And all you see is glory
But most have seen it all
They live their lives
In sad cafés and music halls
They always have a story
Some women have a body
Men will want to see
And so they put it on display
Some people play a fine guitar
I could listen to them play all day
Some ladies really move across a stage
And gee, they sure can dance
I guess I could learn how
If I gave it half a chance
But I always feel so funny
When my body tries to soar
And I seem to always worry
About missing the next chord
I guess there isn’t anything
To put up on display
Except the tune
And whatever else I say
But anyway, that isn’t really
What I meant to say
I meant to tell a story
I live from day to day
Stars, they come and go
They come in fast, they come slow
And they go like the last light of the sun
All in a blaze
And all you see is glory
But most have seen it all
We live our lives
In sad cafés and music halls
We always have a story
So if you don’t lose patience
With my fumbling around
I’ll come up singing for you
Even when I’m down
