If you ask me how I'm doing after all these years Well, it's a different gutter now But the stars they shine the same The stars they shine the It's been so long since we parted ways You have changed, I've stayed the same You have grown, I'm still a kid You have moved, while I'm still here I heard you live in a beautiful house In a nice suburb of Mars Commute to Earth everyday The traffic must be a drag All your dreams have come true And you've got all you need Every night you get high And you never come down Now you're asking how I'm doing after all these years Well, it's a different gutter now But the stars they shine the same The stars they shine the Vision is blurry watching from afar Memories fade like photographs The grass is greener on the other side A remote planet seems like paradise Everything I touch turns into gold That's what you heard, that's what you're told The view is nice from the top of the world I'm pretty sure it is The truth is I get up Every time I hit the bottom I will make my dreams come true I have got what it takes Now you're asking how I'm doing after all these years Well, it's a different gutter now But the stars they shine the same The stars they shine the same The stars they shine the same The stars they shine the same
