If I could walk a straight mile, I could write it down in shorthand, I could show you. If you want me to. And if I had an hourglass, I'd save the grains of time I spent with you That's what I'd do. But I remember, you always said it could be great. And I knew It could be. Well there's a way you look at things, That no one needs to know but you. And you shared it with me. Like every time the leaves would fall, You promised me that they'd be back again. And I believed in you. You always said it could be great. But I had no time too waste, now it seems that I've come too far. As bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star. Bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star. Written down in hard-bound books, The way things used to be, they ain't for me. I'd swear they're all for you. We said sugar, gramps said shoot, Her mom said ****, I don't know what she'll do. As if it's up to you. As bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star. Bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star. Your lucky star will burn ya. Your lucky star will turn you 'round. They're gonna turn you around
