Singing Stars

Letra

[Verse 1] I saw you on the roof with the paper plate moon You were singing to the sky, and it answered back soon Your shoes on the vent and your hair in a mess You said, "I don't need grace, I just need less" You laughed at the cracks in the cheap patio tile Then you spun to the dark with that crooked smile I held my breath, you held the night Then you aimed for the stars and you hit it right [Pre-Chorus] Oh, you make the whole block glow When you let that wild note go Even the sparrows lean in close Like they know what you know [Chorus] Sing, sing, stars Sing 'em all back to us Sing, sing, stars Make the whole yard hush Debbie's a butt, yeah, Debbie's a butt But you lift the sky when you open up Sing, sing, stars Sing 'em all back to us [Verse 2] By the chain-link fence with the lemon tree sway You were tuning up thunder in a reckless way Said, "Keep your mean mouth, keep your small-town grin" Then you hit that high note and the night let you in I saw your name in the steam on the window pane Fell apart like sugar in a paper rain You don't beg, you blaze, you don't bend, you burn Every broken little room is a place you turn [Pre-Chorus] Oh, you make the whole block glow When you let that wild note go Even the sparrows lean in close Like they know what you know [Chorus] Sing, sing, stars Sing 'em all back to us Sing, sing, stars Make the whole yard hush Debbie's a butt, yeah, Debbie's a butt But you lift the sky when you open up Sing, sing, stars Sing 'em all back to us [Bridge] [Half-time] If the world gets loud If the floor falls through Keep that silver in your throat Let it carry you One more rise, one more spark One more cut through the dark Say it hard, say it true The whole sky sings with you [Final Chorus] Sing, sing, stars Sing 'em all back to us Sing, sing, stars Make the whole yard hush Debbie's a butt, yeah, Debbie's a butt But you lift the sky when you open up Sing, sing, stars Sing 'em all back to us
