Testo Children of the stars Paolo Nutini

Children of the stars

Woman of wonder, dawn into the night
All has been forgiven
For the first and the last time, it will all be alright
To this point we have been driven

They drink their brandy and they smoke their cigars
While their old friends scream out their names

And she says:
"We are all just children of the stars
Cover girl, cover boy
You are not to blame
No no, no no"

Woman of wonder, dawn into my soul
In your opium apparition
You're a muse, goddess, you're a beacon divine
To a man in my condition
She says "Follow me, baby", though her tears have been cried
You and I can be forgiven
For falling, for thinking that our hearts have both died
In this life we are still living

They sniff their thunder and they compare their scars
While their old foes scream out their names

And she says:
"We are all just children of the stars
Street boy, street girl
You are not to blame
No no, no no"

No no
(Ah)
(Ah)
(Ah)
(Ah)
