When All The Stars Were Falling

Lisa Loeb

when all the stars were falling
i reached up like you said
all the stars were falling
one hit me in the head
and i fell down down down
i fell down down

when all the stars were falling
they fell from above and i thought of hate
and i thought of hate and then i thought of love
i fell down down down
i fell down down

and i've learned how to dance
from a vincent van gough
and the knights were wrapped
in a white sheet
and now no one even says hello
'cause i couldn't stand on my two feet
i fell down
i fell down
down down down down down down

now the piece you will find on your own
you've found
lights in the city are the stars on the ground
i may not be acquainted
with living in a speed zone
but i could be restfull
i could be someone's home if i fell down
and i fell down down
now all the stars have fallen

    Quote from Lias Loeb: "There's this beautiful image of the stars falling, like in an illustration in a children's book, and then one hits you in the head. Sometimes, even when you're trying your hardest, things can still knock you over. Part of it is also that things on earth have a magical quality too -- "The lights of the city are the stars on the ground." I wrote this when I was living on the nineteenth floor of a New York City apartment building."
