Starlight - Rachael Yamagata, John Alagia

I couldn’t see a thing tonight

Not one star, not one star has shone for you

I couldn’t see a thing tonight

Not one star, not one star has shone for you

I couldn’t see a thing tonight

Not one star, not one star has shone for you

I couldn’t see a thing tonight

Not one star, not one star has shone for you

I add a little candlelight to get through

Oh, I couldn’t see the moon tonight

Not one wave, not one wave was out for you

No, I couldn’t see the pale moonlight

Not one part, not one wave was coming through

And I’m terrified to look outside

'Cause I’ll need you

Starlight makes it all the same

No light and I feel the pain

Starlight makes it all a game with you

Baby

Starlight and I feel the same

Missed flight on this aeroplane

I’d jump from a moving train just to keep you

Would you do it for me?

Oh, I couldn’t see the sky tonight

Not one star, not one star has shone for you

Yeah, I had a real hard time tonight

I still feel your breath, all my love I hold for you

And I think that I’ve been holding out

To hold onto

And I’m terrified to look outside

'Cause I’ll need you

Something about you is like

Drinking a cold glass of water

Everyone needs a place to go to sometimes

Something about you is like

Going against Mother Nature

And I just had to face her every time

Starlight makes it all the same

No light and I feel the pain

Starlight makes it all a game with you

Baby

Starlight and I feel the same

Missed flight on this aeroplane

And I’d jump from a moving train just to keep you

Would you do it for me?

As I watch you walk across the street

I keep wondering why I can’t leave

All the heavens are against me and you

Do you even know a thing 'bout me?

Do you even think about my needs?

'Cause I need you

I couldn’t see a thing tonight

Not one star, not one star was out for you
