By Starlight

(Alternate (early lyrics) title/lyrics for By Starlight)

 

Alt. Lyrics

by starlight i'll kiss you
and promise to be you're one and only
i'll make you feel happy
leave you to be lost in mine
and where will we go
what will we do?
soon said i, will know
dead eyes, are you just like me
cause her eyes were as vacant as the seas
and all along
we knew we'd carry on
just to belong
by starlight i know you
as lovely as a wish granted true
my life has been empty
my life has rung untrue
dead eyes, are you just like me
cause her eyes were as vacant as the seas

By Starlight   (normal version)

  Normal Lyrics

by starlight i'll kiss you
and promise to be your one and only
i'll make you feel happy
and leave you to be lost in mine
and where will we go, what will we do?
soon said i, will know
dead eyes, are you just like me?
cause her eyes were as vacant as the seas
dead eyes, are you just like me?
and all along, we knew we'd carry on
just to belong
by starlight i know you
as lovely as a wish granted true
my life has been empty, my life has been untrue
and does she really know, who i really am?
does she really know me at last
dead eyes, are you just like me?

 

Notes

Early typed lyrics- only minor differences from the album version (missing the "does she really know" part). [scan] This version appears on the MCIS Deluxe re-issue.
