Wondering these city streets from dawn to dusk
Nobody recognized who I was
One cup of coffee in the restaurant
Dreaming of days I was in the lights
Everyone said I was on the rise
Where did they go on my rainy night?
I'm gonna look up to this fading star Fading star,
who's gonna see me?
When it's growing dark,
I'm growing dark If only they could see
how bright I used to be
There was a time they gave me hotel rooms
Key to the top
and
champagne too
Dressed me in velvet,
all shades of blue Who's gonna look up to this fading star?
Fading star,
who's gonna see me?
When it's growing dark,
I'm growing dark
If only they could see how bright I used to be
If
I was poetry,
some kind of
symphony I would still shine in your eyes
Who's gonna look up to this fading star?
Fading star,
who's gonna see me?
When it's growing dark,
I'm growing dark If only they could see how bright I used to be
They'd love me,
I know they'd love me You'd love me,
I would still love me too
