|
Had a friend she was a good friend |
|
The kind that everybody needs |
|
She would spread around her sunshine |
|
Like a farmer sows his seeds |
|
She wasn't just another dreamer |
|
She wasn't just another clown |
|
And we all knew that she got frightened |
|
When the night came tumbling down |
|
Please don't let the starman come again |
|
He'll trick you and there's no way you can win |
|
Please don't let him wait outside your door |
|
'Cause he does not sell dreams any more |
|
There's a cold wind in this city |
|
The rain it falls down at my feet |
|
And now the wolf is getting hungry |
|
And he's out there on the street |
|
Can't you see you in the shadow? |
|
He's got your money in his hand |
|
He's got you walking on this tightrope |
|
And you'll never understand |
|
Please don't let the starman come again |
|
He'll trick you and there's no way you can win |
|
Please don't let him wait outside your door |
|
'Cause he does not sell dreams any more |
|
So the lights go out on Broadway |
|
Illuminated once again |
|
Now the days they have no meaning |
|
And you don't feel any pain |
|
And in the distance I am calling |
|
Yes, I'm calling out your name |
|
It won't be long till you can hear me |
|
And it's the same old blues again |
|
Please don't let the starman come again |
|
He'll trick you and there's no way you can win |
|
Please don't let him wait outside your door |
|
'Cause he does not sell dreams any more |
