Big Stars / Small Lights

When fall foliage is at its peak
I complain that it's not green
And grass is greener everywhere
I assume, but I haven't once compared

Then you taught me that
It's not good to think this way
"Yes, stars shine so bright, but they're not real
Their fire must have died ages ago
Yes, you're a small light, but you're still shinin' bright
So appreciate it while it lasts"
So I appreciate it while it lasts

Our time here is strictly limited
So how should I live up to that?
With any day not spent like the best day
It feels like I waste my time away

Then you taught me that
It's not good to think this way
"Yes, stars shine so bright, but they're not real
Their fire must have died ages ago
Yes, you're a small light, but you're still shinin' bright
So appreciate it while it lasts"
So I appreciate it while it lasts

(Uh)
Let's blame it on the weather
Or how the stars align these days
(Uh)
But I swear that I do better
I'm changing with the weather in spring
(Uh)
Let's blame it on the weather
Or how the stars align these days
(Uh)
But I swear that I do better
I'm changing with the weather in spring

Then you taught me that
It's not good to think this way
"Yes, stars shine so bright, but they're not real
Their fire must have died ages ago
Yes, you're a small light, but you're still shinin' bright
So appreciate it while it lasts"
So I appreciate it while it lasts
