The Stars Didn't Show Lyrics

we came from miles around

just to listen to your sound

you made the night seem endless

you cast a magic spell

you played the part so well

your music blew away the darkness 

we loved you for better

we loved you for worse

but we never took you for granted

your lives were a blessing

but they carried a curse

the night that the stars didn't show 

you made me stand so proud

i was lifted from the crowd

the fire inside me burning

the figure dressed in black

sending shivers down my back

deep inside my soul was stirring 

we loved you for better

we loved you for worse

the sweet inspiration that you gave us

and i can remember we didn't rehearse

the night that the stars didn't show 

mountains may crumble

and worlds fall apart

lovers and friends may desert me

the road may be long

but i know in my heart

your spirit will always be with me 

the thrill to be up there

a sea of faces everywhere

i look i find you 

we loved you for better

we loved you for worse

but we never took you for granted

your lives were a blessing

but they carried a curse

the night that the stars didn't show 

we loved you for better

we loved you for worse

the sweet inspiration that you gave us

and i can remember we didn't rehearse

the night that the stars didn't show
