Is it asking too much to be given time To know these songs and to sing them? Is it asking too much of my vacant smile And my laugh and lies that bring them? As the stars are going out And this stage is full of nothing And the friends have all but gone For my life, my God, I'm singing We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out Is it asking too much of my favourite friends To take this song for real? Is it asking too much of my partner's hands To take this song for real? As the stars are going out And this stage is full of nothing And the friends have all but gone For my life, my God, I'm singing We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside We'll take our hearts outside We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out We'll take our hearts outside Leave our lives behind I'll watch the stars go out
