The Same Stars Lyrics

There's a literal way
that you can take everything i say.
We could end this right now
if you want it that way,
but you don't want it that way.

East coast stories out of books
breed ugly, hateful looks in the streets
of New York and LA,
where there's got to be some kind of institution.
But all i see are problems without the solutions.

And God don't make things
that you can rearrange.
But that's ok,
because i can't take the change.

I'll be happy
when my friends don't go.
When we're in this town
for good i'll know. --

I'll see you somewhere,
like Saturdays
on museum stairs
and in friends' cars
and outside of Irish bars
and underneath the same stars
that lit our situations,
our impulses and our hesitations,
and that will shine on me
when this all works out like your planned
and i can tell you that i understand
because

God don't make things
that you can rearrange,
but that's ok
because i can't take the change
and i'll be happy
when my friends don't go.
When we're in this town
for good i'll know.
