Stars and the Moon Lyrics – Karen Akers
Singer: Karen Akers
Title: Stars and the Moon
〈woman 2〉
I met a man without a dollar to his name
Who had no traits of any value but his smile
I met a man who had no yearn or claim to fame
Who was content to let life pass him for a while
And i was sure that all i ever wanted
Was a life like the movie stars led
And he kissed me right here
And he said
“i’ll give you stars and the moon and a soul to guide you
And a promise i’ll never go
I’ll give you hope to bring out all the life inside you
And the strength that will let you grow
I’ll give you truth and a future that’s twеnty times better
Than any hollywood plot”
And i thought, “you know
I’d rathеr have a yacht”
I met a man who lived his life out on the road
Who left a wife and kids in portland on a whim
I met a man whose fire and passion always showed
Who asked if i could spare a week to ride with him
But i was sure that all i ever wanted
Was a life that was scripted and planned
And he said, “but you don’t understand—”
“i’ll give you stars and the moon and the open highway
And a river beneath your feet
I’ll give you days full of dreams if you travel my way
And a summer you can’t repeat
I’ll give you nights full of passion and days of adventure
No strings, just warm summer rain”
And i thought, “you know
I’d rather have champagne”
I met a man who had a fortune in the bank
Who had retired at age thirty, set for life
I met a man and didn’t know which stars to thank
And then he asked one day if i would be his wife
I looked up, and all that i could think of
Was the life i had dreamt i would live
And i said to him, “what will you give?”
“i’ll give you cars and a townhouse in turtle bay
And a fur and a diamond ring
And we’ll get married in spain on my yacht today
And we’ll honeymoon in beijing
And you’ll meet stars at the parties i throw at my villas
In nice and paris in june”
And i thought, “okay”
And i took a breath
And i got my yacht
And the years went by
And it never changed
And it never grew
And i never dreamed
And i woke one day
And i looked around
And i thought, “my god…
I’ll never have the moon”
