The Same Stars Songtext
von Karate

There′s a literal way that you can take everything I say
And we could end this right now if you want it that way
But you don't want it that way
East coast stories out of books
Breed ugly, hateful looks in the streets of New York and LA
There′s gotta be some kind of institution
But all I see are problems without the solution, and

God don't make things that you can rearrange
But that's okay, ′cause I can′t take the change
And I'll be happy when my friends don′t go
When we're in this town for good, I′ll know


I'll see you somewhere
Like Saturdays on museum stairs
And in friends′ cars and outside of Irish bars
And underneath the same stars
That lit our situations
Our impulses and our hesitations
And that will shine on me when this all works out like you planned
And I can tell you that I understand, 'cause

God don't make things that you can rearrange
But that′s okay, ′cause I can't take the change
And I′ll be happy when my friends don't go
When we′re in this town for good, I'll know
