Stars

Nelly Furtado · The Best of Nelly Furtado [2010]

There are so many stars in the sky tonight

Which one will I take in my hand?

There are so many ways I can live a life

Which one will I make part of my plan?

There are so many spirits in the air tonight

Trying to pull me away



You're a part of me

You're in every breath that I breathe

And every step forward that I take

And then I take a step backwards

And I can't see your face



You're a part of me

You're in every song that I sing

And every bird that sings to me

This is what I dream

To be real

This is my reality



There are so many songs on the people's faces

Everyone could be yours but they're not

And all is lost if I count the truth

To my own heart



You're a part of me

You're in every breath that I breathe

And every step forward that I take

And then I take a step backwards

And I can't see your face



You're a part of me

You're in every song that I sing

And every bird that sings to me

This is what I dream

To be real

This is my reality



Because my heart is a lonely hunter

Dying to strike out

Grabbed you into my world when you didn't even ask

But you always knew that you had a past



You're a part of me

You're in every breath that I breathe

And every step forward that I take

And then I take a step backwards

And I can't see your face



You're a part of me

You're in every song that I sing

And every word that speaks to me

This is what I believe

To be real

This is my reality



I live in this sea
