Stars

Alison Krauss (And Union Station) · New Favorites [Rounder] [2001]

Stood out in the rain, let it soak me down

For I called you, I called you

You did not see me there

Hidden by the dark beneath your window

But I saw you.



When putting on a face for the mirror on the wall

Dreaming that the looking glass is you

Catching my fondest gazes, living though my fickle fazes

I love you.



Spend my dimes on phones trying just to talk

But you don't answer, you let it ring

I spend my nights alone catching fallen stars

To give to you, love, they're just for you.



Stars fall every time a lover has to face the truth

And far too many stars fall on me

And as they trail the skies I burn their paths upon my eyes

I cry.



And it's getting easier each day to weep about you

Harder every night to sleep without you

How many years must I be driven by this dream of

Love with you...
