The Next Best Thing movie - Stars All Seem to Weep lyrics

rate me

Song by Beth Orton<br /><br>

Stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger<br>

And food and love was all but left to hunger.<br>

'Cause when I stray from my truth as I grow older<br>

Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.<br>

<br>

I think about you on a moonlit night<br>

And the stars all seem to weep.<br>

When there's so much to lose<br>

There's never any time for sleep.<br>

<br>

Look at me doing all these things without you.<br>

We always left a new world untrue.<br>

Where was it we tried hard not to go to?<br>

I think that's how I finally came through.<br>

<br>

All the things we took for granted<br>

The words still live on in my head<br>

All the times I took for granted<br>

All the words I never said.<br>

<br>

I think about you in the moonlit night,<br>

And the stars all seem to weep.<br>

When there's so much love to give,<br>

There's never any time for sleep, yeah.<br>

<br>

So I stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger<br>

And human life was all but left to hunger,<br>

'Cause when I stray from the truth as I grow older<br>

Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.<br>

Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.<br>

<br>

Living without you<br>

Living without you.<br>

Living without you, oh.<br>

<br>
