Like a far flung star There you are Littlest than before As you slip from my fingertips Left me here on the burning shore
Searched and searched Ah, you were worth so much More than you ever thought you were Everything you believe I still carry with me Broken down on the burning shore
And it must have felt much easier To have the stars along your side And it must have felt much easier To have the world along your side
A Daddy's girl I see you curl And sleeping on the floor Maybe you dream a little dream of me Down here on the burning shore
Yeah, there you are Attached to a star Beyond the point of no return Maybe you ought to spare a thought For those of us down here who never learn
And it must have felt much easier To have the world along your side And it must have felt much easier To have the stars along your side
And it must have felt much easier To have the world along your side And it must have felt much easier To have the world along your side
