"The Stars Look Down" lyrics

"The Stars Look Down"

Tonight we dine on caviar
And dance on marble floors
Our clicking heels under colour wheels
We kiss behind the doors
A drink to easy victory
A drink before we fall
Though I can't stay I know one day
We'll dance again once more
We'll dance again once more

And all along, the stars look down
And all along, you were reaching out
And I wasn't sure, I was caught
I was lost in the sound
But through it all, the stars look down
The stars look down

Tomorrow when the morning breaks
We'll ride out into war
The sky upon our shoulders
While the guns and cannons roar
And we'll drink to easy victory
We'll drink to one and all
And though I can't stay, I know one day
We'll dance again once more
We'll dance again once more

And all along, the stars look down
And all along, you were reaching out
And I wasn't sure, I was caught
I was lost in the sound
But through it all, the stars look down
The stars look down

And when you're gone
Oh I think of you, oh I think of you
But I don't let on
Oh what good would it do, what good would it do
'Cause I'm caught
And it's win or it's lose, it's win or it's lose
And I don't want to lose you

And we'll drink to easy victory
We'll drink to one and all

And all along, the stars look down
And all along, you were reaching out
And I wasn't sure, I was caught
I was lost in the sound
But through it all, the stars look down
The stars look down
