wake the stars
i've been north of nothing
more than i've been around
and i'm so far away now
that i should turn and come home
but i'm waiting for the weather to change
and i'm waiting for the phone to ring
cause maybe then i wont be so sad

he said you can wake the stars
with a single smile from your face
and you can make the scars
go away from this place
and with a simple sound of your laughter
i can fall into your hands

i've got some old records
and a picture show on video
that makes me think of that piece of you
that once upon a time
use to be a part of us

and i'm so tired of all this cocaine
that seems to want to run
right through my veins
and the alcohol doesnt seem to help
keep me happy
when i cant seem to stop bleeding
these tears that i bleed

and he said you can wake the stars
with a single smile from your face
and you can make the scars
go away from this place
and with a simple sound of your laughter
i can fall into your hands

but baby
may
be
when the weather gets warm
i can shine
and when it gets better
you can be mine
cause i dont want to give you up
but i dont want to hold you back
when its time for you
to fall into my hands
because baby we fit perfectly
in our hands
