Stars All Seem To Weep

Beth Orton

Stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger

And food and love was all but left to hunger.

'Cause when I stray from my truth as I grow older

Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.



I think about you on a moonlit night

And the stars all seem to weep.

When there's so much to lose

There's never any time for sleep.



Look at me doing all these things without you.

We always left a new world untrue.

Where was it we tried hard not to go to?

I think that's how I finally came through.



All the things we took for granted

The words still live on in my head

All the times I took for granted

All the words I never said.



I think about you in the moonlit night,

And the stars all seem to weep.

When there's so much love to give,

There's never any time for sleep, yeah.



So I stayed true to the things I knew when I was younger

And human life was all but left to hunger,

'Cause when I stray from the truth as I grow older

Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.

Too much leaves an empty hollow hunger.



Living without you

Living without you.

Living without you, oh.
