Iko Chérie

Even The Stars

Album: Dreaming On [2015]

You used to say

Time, it is a line that goes a long way

We’re just a sign of love’s infinity

But I’m not so sure anymore

I can feel like before

You used to call me chérie

 

Well days run away

And love it fades

Are we just scared of this empty space?

 

My heart is black and blue

Baby I loved you

I hope your dreams come true

I think the world of you

But my heart is black and blue

Anyone can be untrue

How could I do this to you

When baby I loved you?

 

This mad world is grey 

And I’ve been lying to myself

Maybe we’re just like everybody else...

 

My heart is black and blue

Baby I loved you

I hope your dreams come true 

I think the world of you

My heart is black and blue

Anyone can be untrue

For what is love made of?

Stardust and teardrops

 

If I set you free

This feeling inside of me

Grow without you

Can it be true?

Even the stars, everything good dies

 

But we could be good for a while

Isn’t life just a ride?

Baby please, hold me tight

Let’s just pretend for a while

That nothing good dies

Not even the stars
