Stargazer
(C) 2009 by Robert A Shaw

There's that look in her eye,
Tells me I'm not gonna leave here tonight.
As she brushes right by,
My heart and my mind start a furious fight.

There's that look in my eye,
Gives me a chill of inglorious spite.
Her hair's wild and untied,
I start to believe that this could be all right.

CHORUS:
Never back down.
No more missed opportunities, now.
All my crimes and impurities
Lost in a moment,
I feel like I own it,
But never - never back down.

There's that look in their eyes,
Passes their judgement they want to indict.
All this torment and lies,
It's bringing me down from a dangerous height.

CHORUS

Is it worth all the trouble it causes?
I should have read through the contracts, and clauses
Demanding my death.
If I stop for a second, then maybe I'm reckoned in time,
Then what's left, left, left...?

I don't need your protection, love and affection
Have left me behind, I,
I've gone in a different direction,
And I'm doing fine.

CHORUS

There's that look in our eyes,
Whatever we tell ourselves, this isn't right.
So with one kiss goodbye,
I'll tell you I'm sorry, I'm leaving tonight.
