"Starry Eyes" lyrics
1 2 3 go
Hey, what can you do?
Well, we'll both find out pretty soon
It'll be the same for me as for you
Now, I'm walkin' around with my head up in the clouds singing
Hey, what happened to you
Has left us both feeling pretty bruised
I've had enough of this, haven't you?
Well, I'll tell you all about it on the next train out of town
Hey there, starry eyes
Why you lookin' at me so surprised?
This ain't the dream that they said that you would find
Can't hear yourself all the truth for all the lies
Oh, you're gonna find
It's getting harder each day to survive
Can't find a way to escape or to hide
Just shield yourself from the world that is outside
Hey, what's the use?
You've got to not let it bother you
I know it's gettin' harder to do
So I'm walkin' around with my head up in the clouds singin'
Hey, it's all on the news
How the air you breathe's killing you
I've had enough of this, haven't you?
And so I'll tell you all about it on the next train out of town
Hey there, starry eyes
Why you lookin' at me so surprised?
This ain't the dream that they said that you would find
Can't hear yourself all the truth for all the lies
Oh, you're gonna find
It's gettin' harder each day to survive
Can't find a way to escape or to hide
Just shield yourself from the world that is outside
If I could only see the world through your eyes
(Starry eyes)
If I could only see the world through your eyes
(If I could see the world, starry eyes)
If I could only see the world through your eyes
(Starry eyes)
If I could only see the world through your eyes
Hey there, starry eyes
Why you lookin' at me so surprised?
This ain't the dream that they said that you would find
Can't hear yourself all the truth for all the lies
Oh, you're gonna find
It's gettin' harder each day to survive
Can't find a way to escape or to hide
Just shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world
From the world, from the world
Shield yourself from the world
From the world, from the world that is outside
Hey, what can you do?
Well, we'll both find out pretty soon
It'll be the same for me as for you
Now, I'm walkin' around with my head up in the clouds singing
Hey, what happened to you
Has left us both feeling pretty bruised
I've had enough of this, haven't you?
Well, I'll tell you all about it on the next train out of town
Hey there, starry eyes
Why you lookin' at me so surprised?
This ain't the dream that they said that you would find
Can't hear yourself all the truth for all the lies
Oh, you're gonna find
It's getting harder each day to survive
Can't find a way to escape or to hide
Just shield yourself from the world that is outside
Hey, what's the use?
You've got to not let it bother you
I know it's gettin' harder to do
So I'm walkin' around with my head up in the clouds singin'
Hey, it's all on the news
How the air you breathe's killing you
I've had enough of this, haven't you?
And so I'll tell you all about it on the next train out of town
Hey there, starry eyes
Why you lookin' at me so surprised?
This ain't the dream that they said that you would find
Can't hear yourself all the truth for all the lies
Oh, you're gonna find
It's gettin' harder each day to survive
Can't find a way to escape or to hide
Just shield yourself from the world that is outside
If I could only see the world through your eyes
(Starry eyes)
If I could only see the world through your eyes
(If I could see the world, starry eyes)
If I could only see the world through your eyes
(Starry eyes)
If I could only see the world through your eyes
Hey there, starry eyes
Why you lookin' at me so surprised?
This ain't the dream that they said that you would find
Can't hear yourself all the truth for all the lies
Oh, you're gonna find
It's gettin' harder each day to survive
Can't find a way to escape or to hide
Just shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world that is outside
Shield yourself from the world
From the world, from the world
Shield yourself from the world
From the world, from the world that is outside
