Stars All Seem To Weep by Beth Orton Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1999

[Verse 1]
Stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger
And food and love was all but left to hunger
Cause when I stray from my truth as I grow older
Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger

[Chorus]
I think about you on a moonlit night
And the stars all seem to weep
When there's so much love to lose
There's never any time for sleep

[Verse 2]
Look at me doing all these things without you
We always laughed, and you were untrue
Where was it we tried hard not to go to?
I think that's how I finally came through

[Pre-Chorus]
All the things we took for granted
The words still live on in my head
All the times I took for granted
All the words I never said
[Chorus]
I think about you in the moonlit night
And the stars all seem to weep
When there's so much love to give
There's never any time for sleep, yeah

[Verse 3]
So I stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger
And human life was all but left to hunger
'Cause when I stray from the truth as I grow older
Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger
Too much leaves an empty hunger

[Outro]
Livin' without you
Livin' without you
Livin' without you
