is it asking too much, to be given time,
to know these songs, and to sing them.
is it asking too much, of my vacant smile,
and my laughing lies that bring them.
but as the stars are going out,
and the stage is full of nothing.
and the friends have all but gone,
for my life, my god, I'm singing.
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind,
oh, watch the stars go out.
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind
oh, watch the stars go out.

to take these songs for real.
is it asking too much, of my partner's hands,
to take these songs for real.
but as the stars are going out,
and the stage is full of nothing.
and the friends have all but gone,
for my life, my god, I'm singing.
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind,
oh, watch the stars go out.

we'll take our hats outside,
we'll take our hats outside,
leave our lives behind,
oh, watch the stars go out.

oh, watch the stars go out.
