I heard your voice out in the parking lot
It was 3 am — the bar doors were all locked
A bottle was passed with an old guitar
And you conjured the sound of a burning star

Burning Star, Burning Star
The night sky spits fire wherever you are
And wherever you are is another place
You’ll never be again.

We can all see hell dancing in your eyes
As you’re crossing the pond tossing out your lines
Well you might reel one in, but you’ll never get far
Only warmed by the embers of a burning star

Burning Star, Burning Star
The night sky spits fire wherever you are
Burning Star, Burning Star
Scattering ashes over battle scars
And wherever you are is another place
You’ll never be again.

Listening to you now in this hotel room
Singing “Two Girls” or “Some Lonesome Tune”
I only see the shadow of who you really are
Just ash and smoke signals from a still burning star__________!

Burning Star, Burning Star
The night sky spits fire wherever you are
Burning Star, Burning Star
Scattering ashes over battle scars
And wherever you are there you go
And wherever you go there you are
And wherever you are is another place
You’ll never be again
Burning Star, Burning Star
Burning Star.
