Rachael Yamagata - Starlight

Copied!

I couldn't see a thing tonight
Not one star, not one star has shone for you
I couldn't see a thing tonight
Not one star, not one star has shone for you
I couldn't see a thing tonight
Not one star, not one star has shone for you
I couldn't see a thing tonight
Not one star, not one star has shone for you
I add a little candlelight to get through
Oh, I couldn't see the moon tonight
Not one wave, not one wave was out for you
No, I couldn't see the pale moonlight
Not one part, not one wave was coming through
And I'm terrified to look outside
'Cause I'll need you
Starlight makes it all the same
No light and I feel the pain
Starlight makes it all a game with you
Baby
Starlight and I feel the same
Missed flight on this aeroplane
I'd jump from a moving train just to keep you
Would you do it for me?
Oh, I couldn't see the sky tonight
Not one star, not one star has shone for you
Yeah, I had a real hard time tonight
I still feel your breath, all my love I hold for you
And I think that I've been holding out
To hold onto
And I'm terrified to look outside
'Cause I'll need you
Something about you is like
Drinking a cold glass of water
Everyone needs a place to go to sometimes
Something about you is like
Going against Mother Nature
And I just had to face her every time
Starlight makes it all the same
No light and I feel the pain
Starlight makes it all a game with you
Baby
Starlight and I feel the same
Missed flight on this aeroplane
And I'd jump from a moving train just to keep you
Would you do it for me?
As I watch you walk across the street
I keep wondering why I can't leave
All the heavens are against me and you
Do you even know a thing 'bout me?
Do you even think about my needs?
'Cause I need you
I couldn't see a thing tonight
Not one star, not one star was out for you
