Stardust

I hear some beauty, I see some light
I feel it’s my duty on St. Valentine’s
To ask you to take a chance

With stardust in your eyes

I see it on their faces, again, again
A thousand contestants who never win
Who fall at the first chance

With stardust in your eyes

It’s best when you’re grateful, you might survive
The knife-edge of laughter that splits your side
I only love what I have lost

With stardust in your eyes

I’m not falling for you
I’m not falling for your crown
I’m not falling for you
I’m just falling down

If I found a teacher, I might confide
Blindfold your sister on a firing line
And bang it on your big drum

With stardust in your eyes

I searched for the exit to start anew
Driving past the great house, only thinking of you
Your ankles in the soft sand

With stardust in your eyes

I’m not falling for you
I’m not falling for your crown
I’m not falling for you
I’m just falling down

I’m not falling for you
I’m not falling for your crown
I’m not falling for you
I’m just falling down
