Star of My Affections

Hey there young and handsome you should know the drill, won't you take that pill
and get famous.
It's a fleeting kind of fame though it comes with frills, and all the perfect thrills
of desire.

It's a sawboned affair, leaves you gasping for air
while you claw to the top, pristine cream of the crop
not the everlasting star of my affections.

Happy you can join the overachievers, once doubtful believers
in your life.
All the shiny and the bold, heads too big to uphold
from the haze there.

Leaves you on your knees, others do as they please
And your mournful despair, it gets lost on the air
as you fade from the star of my affections.

     And I told you to breathe
     but you didn't believe
     that I meant what I said
     as I cradled your head
     but I did.....but I did.

Its all in the past, I told you this was meant to last
when our eyes met.
I can heal those wounds with something better that's bloomed
here in our touch.

It's a moment so rare, that it's almost unfair.
Better seize that chance, take my hand and let's dance
as the everlasting star of my affections.


     And I'll give you my heart
     for us never to part.
     It's not much but it's mine
     now it's yours to define
     forever and ever...forever and ever.


All hail the star
because that's what you are
the everlasting star of my affections.
