Wash Away the Stars by Elyse Michaels Lyrics
Venus said to Mars, “what a lovely night”
He looked back at her with stars in his eyes
They arrived from different journeys in different times
But in that moment they couldn’t read the warning signs
Then the rain, rain, rain came pouring down
Washed away the stars washed away the sound
Rain, rain, rain came pouring down
But nothing they could say would turn this planet back around
That moment they danced there was no one else around
The moon turned silently, she didn’t make a sound
But the World was watching from the corner of her eye
As the waves crashed, and the wind howled, and the sky cried
Then the rain, rain, rain came pouring down
Washed away the stars washed away the sound
Rain, rain, rain came pouring down
But nothing they could say would turn this planet back around
Like a shooting star across the Galaxy
The story had been written, what was left to see?
Mercury watched on with nothing else to say
And the heavens laughed, and the sun burned, and Venus sang
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
Wash away the stars wash away the sound
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
But nothing she could say would turn this planet back around
I can’t talk to you
Cause you can’t hear me anyway
But when the planets turn around
And my words break down
I finally figure out
Then the rain, rain, rain came pouring down
Washed away the stars washed away the sound
Rain, rain, rain came pouring down
But nothing they could say would turn this planet back around
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
Wash away the stars wash away the sound
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
But nothing she could say would turn this planet back around
Venus said to Mars, “what a lovely night”
He looked back at her with stars in his eyes
He looked back at her with stars in his eyes
They arrived from different journeys in different times
But in that moment they couldn’t read the warning signs
Then the rain, rain, rain came pouring down
Washed away the stars washed away the sound
Rain, rain, rain came pouring down
But nothing they could say would turn this planet back around
That moment they danced there was no one else around
The moon turned silently, she didn’t make a sound
But the World was watching from the corner of her eye
As the waves crashed, and the wind howled, and the sky cried
Then the rain, rain, rain came pouring down
Washed away the stars washed away the sound
Rain, rain, rain came pouring down
But nothing they could say would turn this planet back around
Like a shooting star across the Galaxy
The story had been written, what was left to see?
Mercury watched on with nothing else to say
And the heavens laughed, and the sun burned, and Venus sang
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
Wash away the stars wash away the sound
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
But nothing she could say would turn this planet back around
I can’t talk to you
Cause you can’t hear me anyway
But when the planets turn around
And my words break down
I finally figure out
Then the rain, rain, rain came pouring down
Washed away the stars washed away the sound
Rain, rain, rain came pouring down
But nothing they could say would turn this planet back around
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
Wash away the stars wash away the sound
Rain, rain, rain come pouring down
But nothing she could say would turn this planet back around
Venus said to Mars, “what a lovely night”
He looked back at her with stars in his eyes
