Chasing Stars

She loves the clouds and the sunshine
He loves the stars and the moon
You gotta place another dime in the jukebox
So that their song doesn't end too soon

The way she sings and she dances
Makes up for anything else that she might do
And the way he quotes The Stones in conversations
Saying start me up, my baby, I missed you

I know it sounds absurd
Always chasing stars
All around the world
Now the world is ours
We're well-to-do
Not a dime to our name
One thing's for sure
Never be the same

Can't he hear her knocking on his window
She can hear him banging on her door
It's early morning, five hours until sunrise
When they hear voices in their heads they can't ignore

He takes her by the hand and drives her crazy
He looks into her eyes and whispers slow
We were born to run like wild horses
Free from the madness and nonsense is where we'd go

I know it sounds absurd
Always chasing stars
All around the world
Now the world is ours
We're well-to-do
Not a dime to our name
One thing's for sure
Never be the same

Lying on the hood of her Mustang convertible
Gazing up at the midnight sky
Destined for greatness they'd never give up
Discovering the riches that money can't buy

She speaks softly, her words, they drive him crazy
Come on babe, crank up the stereo
We need to go with our own flow, don't sweat the details
Just let the universe take us where we should go

There's always a point when life tears you apart
And memories are what you're living for
There's something oh so familiar about them
So enjoy the ride 'cause in a flash it'll be no more

I know it sounds absurd
Always chasing stars
All around the world
Now the world is ours
We're well-to-do
Not a dime to our name
One thing's for sure
Never be the same

I know it sounds absurd
Always chasing stars
All around the world
Now the world is ours
We're well-to-do
Not a dime to our name
One thing's for sure
Never be the same
