Stars Could Fall

Illness is a memory from when I was a child Just thirteen or fourteen hours ago And though I'm only but a man, I've run, I've come to understand that I have never lived like this before So I put roots in this city so far from my own but the waters clear, and helps my leaves too grow Summers gone and autumns comin' So come and see me change my colors, oh Just like I ain't never done before But what makes you so sure that I'm worth fighting for Cause I ain't convinced myself The stars could fall for me each night And I'd be searching for somebody else Step out on the balcony, Feel the sun beneath my feet Look to the north them rain clouds they don't lie The earth is calm, it's morning still, and I haven't slept without these pills in oh, more than just a little while See it's been a year or more since she left me all alone But only half that since I put her in the ground And I've been patient I've been kind but I have also lost my mind searching For what I've already found But what makes you so sure that I'm worth fighting for Cause I ain't convinced myself The stars could fall for me each night And I'd be searching for somebody else Give me to the lovers, or give me to the thieves Make my body useful for a change Give me all that I deserve, a gentle touch, a profane word And I will share with you my own last name But what makes you so sure that I'm worth fighting for Cause I ain't convinced myself The stars could fall for me each night And I'd be looking for somebody else
