if i could walk a straight mile
and could write it down in shorthand i could show you
if you want me to
and if i had an hourglass
id save the grains of time i spent with you
thats what id do
but i remember
you always said it could be great
and i knew it could be
well theres a way you look at things
that no one needs to know but you
and youd shout it with me
like every time the leaves would fall
you promised me that theyd be back again
and i believed in you
you always said it could be great
but i hadnt time to waste
now it seems that ive gone too far
as bright as you are dont get burned by your lucky star
bright as you are dont get burned by your lucky star
written down in hard bound books
the way things used to be they aint for me
id swear theyre all for you
we said sugar gramps said shoot
her momma said shit i dont know what shell do
as if its up to you
but i remember
you always said it could be great
but i hadnt time to waste
now it seems that ive gone too far
as bright as you are dont get burned by your lucky star
bright as you are dont get burned by your lucky star
your lucky star will burn out
your lucky star can turn you round
your lucky star will burn out
your lucky star can turn you round
turn you round turn you round turn you round
theyre gonna turn you around
