Sweetness In Starlight Lyrics

fallin asleep
to the sound of the stars, shooting round the moon
but i can't watch them fly tonight, baby
i'm much too busy here watchin you

i guess your smile is the sun's way
of lighting up what's dark
so shine, shine, shine tonight, honey,
because it only takes a spark
chorus:
sweetness in starlight
sweetness til sunrise
sweetness in starlight
sweetness til daysighs
sweetness in starlight

and there's nothing under these bright stars
that could bring this night to ruin
so hold on tightly, sugar
because tonight's gonna end too soon

you're touch is potent medicine
knocks me out with just one shot
never seen such strong elixer, baby
fixin all i'm not

i'm holding so tightly, baby
i wont let you go

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

there's not too many words to this song, but it's pretty powerful. it sounds like it could come right out of a teen flick, but at the same time it's really deep and meaningful. sometimes songs with less words say more, and this epitomizes it all.
