Children Of The Stars

Woman of wonder, dawn into the night All has been forgiven For the first and the last time, it will all be alright To this point we have been driven They drink their brandy and they smoke their cigars While their old friends scream out their names And she says, "We are all just children of the stars Cover girl, cover boy You are not to blame No no, no no" Woman of wonder, dawn into my soul In your opium apparition You're a muse, goddess, you're a beacon divine To a man in my condition She says, "Follow me, baby", though our tears have been cried You and I can be forgiven For falling, for thinking that our hearts have both died In this life we are still living They sniff their thunder and they compare their scars While their old foes scream out their name And she says, "We are all just children of the stars Street boy, street girl You are not to blame No no, no no" No no (Ah) (Ah) (Ah) (Ah) --- Children of the Stars - Paolo Nutini
