Stars Lyrics
[01:03.92] I'm running through a field with my mother
[01:07.36] I'm just a baby and I'm running through the tall grass
[01:11.96] And I'm picking blueberries
[01:15.61] Watching the sky even out
[01:18.05] Hearing the birds go chirp chirp
[01:22.16] And the fireflies go bzz bzz
[01:29.63] I'm just the happiest I ever was
[01:33.99] I used to didn't wanna grow older
[01:37.24] What are ya gonna be when you grow up?
[01:41.50] I wanna pick berries in the field
[01:51.73] I wanna play in the field and climb the trees
[01:58.65] Never really had any friends around
[02:02.19] All the other kids just stayed inside
[02:07.15] Newspaper man said, "We're living in a one horse town"
[02:12.83] I thought, "That must be a lonely life"
[02:20.73] I got a job at the factory
[02:23.18] Putting things inside of the boxes
[02:25.55] Until the boxes are full up and they go away forever
[02:31.35] I just can't wait for the sun to set
[02:35.07] So I can go outside and go back to the field
[02:42.72] Sometimes I... I wish it was dark forever
[02:50.21] And I could hide under the trees
[02:54.11] See the stars come out
[02:57.24] Glow in the dark stars
[02:58.97] Like in my bedroom at night
[03:03.23] Monsters couldn't give me a fright
[03:07.23] I wanna stay out and play
[03:08.73] But they always find me and bring me back
[03:14.52] They said, "A field's no place for a baby like you"
[03:21.18] I said, "Wasn't everything just fields to begin with?"
[03:30.32] Daddy lost his job when the mill closed
[03:33.43] Now I'm all grown up
[03:36.64] And I'm back in the field
[03:38.19] And I'm with her and her and him and them
[03:46.65] This time, mama stayed home
[03:51.50] Legs feel heavy like a stone
[03:55.25] Sometimes I feel so happy that I could explode
[04:00.20] I can see the stars in the field
[04:02.57] I'm holding hands with everyone I ever did meet
[04:08.69] Did you ever hear a sound that felt like air?
[04:13.28] That you could feel but couldn't see
[04:18.20] The branches and the leaves look like fingers on the trees
[04:24.33] We started dancing by the stream
[04:27.28] Lights and beams in the sky was blue and green
[04:32.17] Prettier than you could ever believe
[04:36.97] Somebody just said it was gettin' late
[04:41.12] I don't ever wanna leave
[04:46.65] Please don't make me leave
[04:55.23] Dawn comin' up like a mack truck down the highway
[05:00.68] Underside of the sky lookin' periwinkle
[05:06.12] People keep on walking away
[05:10.35] But I'm still in the field
[05:13.99] Chewing on a blueberry
[05:19.13] Hoping the sun gets shy
[05:22.79] And goes right on back down again
[05:26.55]
[01:07.36] I'm just a baby and I'm running through the tall grass
[01:11.96] And I'm picking blueberries
[01:15.61] Watching the sky even out
[01:18.05] Hearing the birds go chirp chirp
[01:22.16] And the fireflies go bzz bzz
