Prefab Sprout - We Let The Stars Go Lyrics
There was that girl I used to knowShed tease me about my nameFan the embers long enoughI sometimes catch her flameThe soothing voice of distance tells meThat was just a flingOther music fills my earsBut I still hear her sing :She sings :Paddy joe, say paddy joeDont you remember me ?How long ago one gorgeous nightWe let the stars goPaddy joe, say paddy joeDont you remember me ?How long ago one gorgeous nightWe let the stars go freeThere was a boy I used to beI guess that he was coldIf she came to buy him nowHow cheaply hed be soldBut the light is gone and it is darkWhat used to be the skyIs suddenly embarrassingTo the ***** eyeYou see :Paddy joe, see paddy joeCant face this memoryHow long ago one gorgeous nightWe let the stars goPaddy joe, see paddy joeCant face this memoryHow long ago one gorgeous nightWe let the stars goLong ago one gorgeous nightWe let the stars goLong ago one stupid nightWe let the stars go freeWe let the stars go freeWe let the stars go freeWe let the stars go freeWe let the stars go free
