Come Back Little Star Songtext
von Patterson Hood

Heaven blue eyes
His long black glasses
Razor tongue and sourthern draw
Pouring out like a lassi
A trail of silver mercury
To show us all what you′ve seen
You always had a drink in your hand
But your liver ain't what it used to be

I′m not really mad
Mean I'm trying hard to understand
We both had these dreams too long
Let them slip through your hand
I've got a drink or two myself to control the sting
This town has blown to tatters
When you traded in your wheels for wings


Baby don′t go,
Come back little star and take me with you in the night
Exploding in the sky casting shells in the light
Baby don′t got
Take me with you all these journeys and plans we can share
A world of dreams we made together
Leave me lying over here

Lying over here
Broken shirts flapping in the rain
The winds crying on some breeze
Oak trees snapping from the string
I just wanna stay in that better time and place
Chasing bugs in your granny's yard
Before you disappeared into time and space


Baby don′t go,
Come back little star and take me with you in the night
Watching everyone we know
Moving slow together as our dreams take flight
Baby don't go
Take me with you
We can chase down the sun rise or disappear
Make some wishes joined together
And I could wish to have you here
Wish to have you here
Wish to have you here
I could wish to have you here
To wish yo have you here
I could wish to have you here

So baby don′t go
Come back little star
Oh baby don't go
Come back little star
Come back little star
Come back little star
