Stars-The Slackers

The stars that wouldn't shine they don't go away Just cause you don't see them shinning here today The stars that wouldn't shine just haven't been seen here And they may not arrive for a million years The stars that wouldn't shine have been left for dead Because they take their time you haven't seen them yet They may not arrive for a million days It don't mean they don't try to make it through the haze The stars that wouldn't shine The stars that wouldn't shine (shine) They cross the darkened skies like a ghostly ship And because they deny your eyes you'd like to say they don't exist They may not reach these shores until we're all long dead But like a light your seeing now they too are light years ahead The stars that wouldn't shine The stars that wouldn't shine (shine) The stars that wouldn't shine don't mean you no harm They mean to help you keep you safe & warm And if their loving fingers haven't found you yet I will remind you lest you forget The stars that wouldn't shine The stars that wouldn't shine The stars that wouldn't shine The stars that wouldn't shine The stars that wouldn't shine The stars that wouldn't shine (repeat)
