Why The Bright Stars Glow
[Verse 1]
When our race is run
And the gold is won
Look how far we've come
Dancing in the sun
It is then I know
I can't let you go
It is then I know
It's not suitable
[Chorus]
To say I, to say I, to say I
To say I, to say I, to say I
[Verse 2]
'Cause what would we do?
And where would we be?
If it's not you
And if it's not you and me (If it's not you)
You and me
And if it's not you (If it's not you, if it's not you, if it's not you)
As the curtains close
On a sold-out show
Look how far we've come
Dancing in the sun
It is then I know
Why the bright stars glow
It is then I know
It's impossible
[Chorus]
To say I, to say I, to say I
To say I, to say I, to say I
[Bridge]
You are my starlight (The star of my love)
Oh, how you shine bright (Where I would be)
From day until night (How would we share)
Darling we see
Where would we be?
If it's not you
And if it's not you and me
[Outro]
If it's not you
If it's not you
If it's not you
If it's not you
