The Furthest Star - Amy Macdonald

The furthest star in the sky, well that’s the one that passed me by.

I tried to wish upon that star, it didn’t get me very far.

It fell on empty ears, it fell on empty hearts.

And my dreams, they fell

apart.

I’m always wishing I was someone else, I’m always hoping I can sell myself

But I’ll be free for what I believe and I won’t sell my soul just to achieve my goal.

And I’ve been holding back the tears, dreaming all these

years.

And I sing from the heart if you’ll listen to me, everything I do is what I believe.

The lights went out across the world and your house of cards came tumbling

down 'cause nothing stays and noting sticks when you’re rolling with the

lunatics.

But my star in the darkest sky twinkles and watches while the other stars

die upon your empty ears and empty hearts.

I’m always wishing I was someone else, but I’ve given up the goals, I will

never sell myself.

But I’ll be free for what I believe and I won’t sell my soul just to achieve my goal.

And I’ve been holding back the tears, dreaming all these

years.

And I sing from the heart if you’ll listen to me, everything I do is what I believe.

The furthest star in the sky, well that’s the one that passed me by.

I tried to wish upon that star, it didn’t get me very far.
