Underneath the Stars Songtext
von Deacon Blue

Let′s pretend this night is ours, like we ever really owned it
That cold wind's not circlin′ 'round the house
The cracks and tears aren't showin′
If traffic noise was breakin′ waves
I could take you for a swim
We'd dry off under the streetlights
And know we′d almost had a win

So kid-on, that neon sign's the moon
Barkin′ street dogs are singin' us a tune
Even though the rain is fallin′
We'll still pretend that we're together here
Underneath the stars
Underneath the stars


I never meant to make you tired, take so much away
I was too busy movin′ on
When all I had to do was stay
No stars above to guide us
No way to see where the light was
You were standin′ in the shadows
That seemed so far away

Kid-on, that neon sign's the moon
Barkin′ street dogs are singin' us a tune
Even though the rain is fallin′
We'll still pretend that we′re together here
Underneath the stars
Underneath the stars

I pull this sheet right over our heads
Make this place a palace
Nothin' less than a court for kings and countesses
That's just not the way it is, I guess

Kid-on, that neon sign′s the moon
Barkin′ street dogs are singin' us a tune
For one last night, let′s pretend we're still together here
Underneath the stars
Underneath the stars
Underneath the stars
Underneath the stars
