[00:13.48]I was never one for singing
[00:19.55]What I really feel
[00:26.15]Except tonight I'm bringing
[00:31.35]Everything I know that's real
[00:38.77]Stars, they come and go
[00:43.64]They come fast and slow
[00:47.28]They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze
[00:51.47]And all you see is glory
[01:02.43]Hey, but it gets loney there
[01:06.30]When there's no one here to share
[01:11.21]We can shake it away
[01:16.25]If you'll hear a story
[01:25.64]People lust for fame
[01:28.78]Like athletes in a game
[01:32.99]We all break our collarbones
[01:35.31]And come up swinging
[01:37.24]Some of us are downed
[01:40.70]Some of us are crowned
[01:43.22]And some of are lost and never found
[01:46.83]But most have seen it all
[01:51.49]They live their lives
[01:52.97]In sad cafes and music halls
[01:59.17]They always come up singing
[02:06.32]Some make it when they're young
[02:09.80]Before the world has done it's dirty job
[02:13.47]And later on, someone will say
[02:16.12]"You've had your day, you must make way."
[02:24.13]But they'll never know the pain
[02:28.14]Of living with a name you never owned
[02:33.47]Or the many years forgetting
[02:35.52]What you know too well
[02:39.97]That the ones who gave the crown
[02:42.42]Have been let down
[02:44.86]You try to make amends without defending
[02:54.20]Perhaps pretending you never saw the eyes
[02:59.89]Of grown men of twenty-five
[03:04.80]Who all followed as you walked
[03:07.24]And asked for autographs
[03:08.19]Or kissed you on the cheek
[03:11.36]And you never can believe
[03:13.99]They really loved you
[03:17.72]Some make it when they're old
[03:22.73]Perhaps they have a soul
[03:25.16]They're not afraid to bare
[03:30.16]Or perhaps there's nothing there
[03:39.12]Stars, they come and go
[03:43.27]They come fast, they come slow
[03:46.30]They go like the last light of the sun
[03:50.11]All in a blaze. And all you see is glory
[04:00.71]But those who've seen it all
[04:05.55]Live out their lives
[04:06.72]In sad cafes and music halls
[04:13.23]They always have a story
[04:21.18]Some women have a body
[04:23.32]Men will want to see
[04:27.70]So they put it on display
[04:29.80]And some people play a fine guitar
[04:34.47]I could listen to them play all day
[04:41.26]Same ladies really move across a stage
[04:44.15]And, gee, they sure can dance
[04:50.95]I guess I could learn how
[04:55.50]If I gave it half a chance
[04:59.95]But I always feel so funny
[05:03.20]When my body tries to soar
[05:06.75]And I always seem to worry
[05:09.83]About missing the next chord
[05:14.26]So, I guess there isn't anything
[05:16.78]To put out on display
[05:21.32]Except the tunes
[05:26.29]And whatever else I say
[05:30.91]And anyway, that isn't really
[05:34.94]What I meant to say
[05:39.99]I just meant to tell a story
[05:43.79]And I live from day to day
[05:48.20]Stars, they come and go
[05:52.30]They come fast, they come slow
[05:55.74]They go like the last light of the sun
[05:59.92]All in a blaze
[06:05.76]And all you see is glory
[06:11.91]But those who've seen it all
[06:16.51]Live out their lives
[06:17.55]In sad cafes and music halls
[06:19.92]We always have a story
[06:24.00]So, if you don't lose patience
[06:32.77]With my fumbling around
[06:37.89]I'll come up singing for you
[06:43.37]Even when I'm down

I was never one for singing
What I really feel
Except tonight I'm bringing
Everything I know that's real
Stars, they come and go
They come fast and slow
They go like the last light of the sun, all in a blaze
And all you see is glory
Hey, but it gets loney 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 all break our collarbones
And come up swinging
Some of us are downed
Some of us are crowned
And some of are lost and never found
But most have seen it all
They live their lives
In sad cafes and music halls
They always come up singing
Some make it when they're young
Before the world has done it's dirty job
And later on, someone will say
"You've had your day, you must make way."
