[Verse 1: Anne Sophie von Otter]
The stars were so much brighter then
They dim and die so why pretend
The sky goes on forever
[Verse 2: Anne Sophie von Otter]
But if they fade as science teaches
Poets lose the power of speech
Waste paper, ink and feather
[Pre-Chorus: Elvis Costello, Both]
If I'd taken up the trumpet as I should have done
Then I wouldn't be always losing sleep
While I'm trying to make this rhyme
[Chorus: Anne Sophie von Otter, Elvis Costello]
For the stars were so much
They were so much brighter then
If I couldn't put a price on your head
What's the use of me trying
For the stars?
[Verse 2: Anne Sophie von Otter, Both]
The morning comes
The days are just the time between
Until the dusk
When we can be together
The stars were so much brighter then
They dim and die so why pretend
The sky goes on forever
[Verse 2: Anne Sophie von Otter]
But if they fade as science teaches
Poets lose the power of speech
Waste paper, ink and feather
[Pre-Chorus: Elvis Costello, Both]
If I'd taken up the trumpet as I should have done
Then I wouldn't be always losing sleep
While I'm trying to make this rhyme
[Chorus: Anne Sophie von Otter, Elvis Costello]
For the stars were so much
They were so much brighter then
If I couldn't put a price on your head
What's the use of me trying
For the stars?
[Verse 2: Anne Sophie von Otter, Both]
The morning comes
The days are just the time between
Until the dusk
When we can be together
