All the Stars in Heaven Lyrics

if heaven knew the reason
that I'm in the state I'm in
angels would come calling
just to bring you back home again

if I could tell them why
I feel the way I do
they would come running
just to bring my heart
back to you

but I can't go on pretending
that they'll be a happy ending
and I still want you for my life
but I know it isn't right

and all of the stars in heaven
I saw yours shining bright
and of all my heart's desires
I wished for your love tonight

just trying to find a reason
how I could lose a love so true
just trying to find
what happened
to the best thing I ever knew

if I could find a way
you know I'd make it all up to
cause taking you for granted
is the last thing I wanted to do

but I can't go on pretending
that they'll be a happy ending
and I still want you for my life
but I know it isn't right

and all of the stars in heaven
I saw yours shining bright
and of all my heart's desires
I wished for your love tonight

and all of the stars in heaven
I saw yours shining bright
and of all my heart's desires
I wished for your love tonight

I Don't Care What My Friends Say

if heaven knew the reason
that I'm in the state I'm in
angels would come calling 
just to bring you back home again

if I could tell them why
I feel the way I do
they would come running 
just to bring my heart 
back to you

but I can't go on pretending
that they'll be a happy ending
and I still want you for my life
but I know it isn't right

and all of the stars in heaven
I saw yours shining bright
and of all my heart's desires
I wished for your love tonight

just trying to find a reason
how I could lose a love so true
just trying to find 
what happened
to the best thing I ever knew

if I could find a way
you know I'd make it all up to
cause taking you for granted 
is the last thing I wanted to do

but I can't go on pretending
that they'll be a happy ending
and I still want you for my life
but I know it isn't right

and all of the stars in heaven
I saw yours shining bright
and of all my heart's desires
I wished for your love tonight

and all of the stars in heaven
I saw yours shining bright
and of all my heart's desires
I wished for your love tonight

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.
