You're washing away everything   The world means nothing to a dreamer   They?re puppets on their strings on the TV screen   It means nothing to me, Cardboard believers in nothing      If I could run away   If I could be a star   Would it take too much to save me?   To love you for who you are      The windows are open now   Clean free for dreaming   Arms open to the world   And all for needing nothing      If I could run away   If I could be a star   Would it take too much to save me?   To love you for who you are      If I could run away   If I could be a star   Would it take too much to save me?   To love you for who you are      To watch my life pass by   Eyes, I can't keep 'em closed   I've never been afraid to lose   You're damaged goods at best      And you're breaking down on me   You're just like all the rest   Of us you need a meaning   That's nothing      If I could run away   If I could be a star   Would it take too much to save me?   To love you for who you are      If I could run away   If I could be a star   Would it take too much to save me?   Save me      I never walk that line   I never saw the stars fall from the sky   In this night, in this painted light   I watch my dreams go by, I watch my dreams go by   Go by, go by, go by, go by, go by
