Blue Star Lyrics

The year flew over my head

In a champagne haze of cigarettes

If this is the start to the end of the world

I'm so glad I met you

There's a map on this paper cup

And I hold my breath while he marks it up

All the memories flowing from a pen, he shows me everywhere he's been

"But what's the use," he thinks

"If only to come home again"

Where are you Blue Star

I can feel you over my head

'Cause I've traveled too far

To lie alone in this Hotel Chelsea bed

I've been on this train before

But I was more alive the last time

And this dirty water

Won't fill up my cup no more

So you follow all the lines and dots

To all the hollow empty spots

Where the memories flowing from a glass, your Baby Girl grew up too fast

"But what's the use," you think

"At least there are some things that last"

Where are you Blue Star

I can feel you over my head

'Cause I've traveled too far

To lie alone in this Hotel Chelsea

Pray the Rosary

If it makes up for what you lack

Is she a cross around your neck

Or is she carried on your back

Where are you Blue Star

I can feel you over my head

'Cause I've traveled too far

To lie alone in this Hotel Chelsea bed

I've been on this train before
