The stars she would wish upon Were dead and gone all those years ago Looks like she aint done with the bill Of these pilling up nights in the cold Somehow they're still burnin' Don't let it get into your soul She don't waste no prayers on no miracles Or throw kisses to the crowd Her love mimicking a meteor Before it touches ground Tonight she'll dance like noone's watching Tomorrow she'll be out of town But there is something in the timing there That she just can't get right And the truth unfolds itself before her eyes Looking so inviting But there ain't nothing there for us We'll be forgotten in the name of every ghost That ever walked these streets Burnt down tho ashes like the phoenix bird, And laid by their feet Baby, aint no use in coming back Everything is holy as it is She keeps on wandering with her heart miles apart She keeps on wishing upon the same dead stars They all look like they're still burnin' Honey, just like us
