Stars Don’t Shine Lyrics by Chance Waters

Stars Don’t Shine (single)

2015

Verse 1 - Chance Waters
This is our last goodbye
That was our final kiss
This is our closing scene
That was our dying breath
And there ain't nothing more
And we have nothing left
I got an open mouth
Girl but there was nothing said
She says I lost our high
And that I missing now
I think I kinda did
But I think it was set in stone
But as I'm clutching on her
Begging her to never go
I'm thinking about the adage that if you love someone let em so
Chorus - Chance Waters
So I guess this is goodbye
But I never really thought of things without you in my life
And I couldn't really picture it without you by my side
But I guess I'll have to, try
So I guess this is goodbye
As I watch you lease your prisms in the liquid in my eyes
So I have to watch you go a hundred million different times
When I couldn't handle twice, she says
- Chance Waters and Esther Sparkes
So you can want me when the stars don't shine
And you can have me once upon a time
And you can hold me when the sun goes cold
When the Earth turns stone
And the rivers run dry
So you can love me when the stars don't shine
And you can have me once upon a time
And you can hold me when the sun goes cold
When the Earth turns stone
But until that time
Verse 2 - Chance Waters
We didn't take a vote
I didn't have a choice
And when she took herself
I swear she took my voice
Days turn to weeks
Those weeks turn to months
Those months turn me into someone that I couldn't love
I didn't write a thing
I was to busy for anything that didn't middle, start and end with intercourse
I swear to fucking God that I was on collision course
Between a selfish little boy and silencin' my inner voice
Chorus - Chance Waters
So I guess this is goodbye
And I really feel like I deserved to know what's perfect
But I let her down
And even now I feel the burden
I feel so fucking guilty
I swear they read the verdict
So I guess this is goodbye
And I feel like a stomach ache and really wounded
I cheated twice
And in my weakness never told her
I didn't really tell myself until this very moment
- Esther Sparkes
So you can want me when that stars don't shine
And you can have me once upon a time
And you can hold me when sun goes cold
When the Earth turns stone
And the rivers run dry
So you can love me when that stars don't shine
And you can have me once upon a time
And you can hold me when sun goes cold
When the Earth turns stone
But until that time
(Instrumental Outro)
