If I could walk a straight mileAnd write it down in shorthand I could show youIf you want me toAnd if I had an hourglassId save the grains of time I spent with youThats what Id doBut I rememberYou always said it could be greatAnd I knew it could beWell theres a way you look at thingsThat no one needs to know but youAnd you shared them with meLike every time the leaves would fallYou promised me that theyd be back againAnd I believed in youYou always said it could be greatBut I hadnt time to wasteNow it seems that Ive gone too farAs bright as you are dont get burned by your lucky starBright as you are dont get burned by your lucky starWritten down in hard bound booksThe way things used to be they aint for meId swear theyre all for youRi said sugar, gram said shootHer mom said shit I dont know what shell doAs if its up to youBut I rememberYou always said it could be greatBut I hadnt time to wasteNow it seems that youve gone too farAs bright as you are dont get burned by your lucky starBright as you are dont get burned by your lucky starYour lucky star will burn youYour lucky star can turn you roundYour lucky star will burn outYour lucky star can turn you round
