The North Star Lyrics - Elton John

You can't always count on the prayers in your sleep 

But this cold light's still killing me 

If I pay the ransom 

Well can they guarantee 

To split the chains, slip the knots 

I don't know if they'll ever set you free 

I just can't rely on all these twisted signs 

Too many bright lights turn you blind 

The history of the blues 

Seems to swim in your eyes 

Pick yourself up, throw your head back 

Take a long, long look into the sky

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Are you out there, are you listening 

Am I'm coming across to you 

Is the North Star still shining 

In the sky outside your room 

You can listen but they're lying 

Don't let them tell you 

What you've always known 

It's the North Star that's the big one 

And it's always gonna lead you home 

Can't always agree on all my dumb ideas 

I'm still looking for a way out of here 

You can value what you want 

But you pay for change 

There's full moons, cold lifeless nights 

And tumbled stars spell out your name 

Close your eyes, take a ride 

Think of everytime that you 

missed your opp 

click your heels, see how it feels 

Something so childish
