February Stars Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm hangin' on
Here until I'm gone
I'm right where I belong
Just hangin' on
[Verse 2]
And even though
Watched you come and go
How was I to know
You'd steal the show?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
One day, I'll have enough to gamble
I'll wait to hear your final call
And bet it all
[Verse 1]
I'm hangin' on
Here until I'm gone
Right where I belong
Just hangin' on
[Verse 3]
Even though
I pass this time alone
Somewhere so unknown
It heals the soul
I'm hangin' on
Here until I'm gone
I'm right where I belong
Just hangin' on
[Verse 2]
And even though
Watched you come and go
How was I to know
You'd steal the show?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
One day, I'll have enough to gamble
I'll wait to hear your final call
And bet it all
[Verse 1]
I'm hangin' on
Here until I'm gone
Right where I belong
Just hangin' on
[Verse 3]
Even though
I pass this time alone
Somewhere so unknown
It heals the soul
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You ask for walls, I'll build them higher
We'll lie in the shadows of them all
I'd stand but they're much too tall
And I fall
[Chorus]
February stars
Floatin' in the dark
Temporary scars
February stars
February stars
Floatin' in the dark
Temporary scars
February stars
February stars
Floatin' in the dark
Temporary scars
February stars
You ask for walls, I'll build them higher
We'll lie in the shadows of them all
I'd stand but they're much too tall
And I fall
[Chorus]
February stars
Floatin' in the dark
Temporary scars
February stars
February stars
Floatin' in the dark
Temporary scars
February stars
February stars
Floatin' in the dark
Temporary scars
February stars
