LYRICS:
Do you remember Montreal?
We made last call at the bar
They spoke to you in French and me in English

Well I remember holding on
And how we stayed up till the sun
“Harvest Moon” played on forever

Hey babe it’s alright
Everything in its own time
I cross my heart and hope to die
And take a trip to another life

Back when we were stars
When we were stars

We’re stoned by the lake
You called me his name by mistake
What a funny way to break us open

But I’m not laughing, not this time
Keep your secrets, I’ll keep mine
Lovers turning back to strangers

Which one is that lullaby
Where everything is gonna be alright?
I cross my heart and hope to die
And take a trip to another life

Back when we were stars
When we were stars

Come back to me, come back to me
This is a bad one

Stay close to me, stay close to me
I surrender

How did we get so far from back when we were stars?
How did we get so far from back when we were stars?

How did we get so far from back when we were stars?
How did we get so far from back when we were stars?

Come back to me, come back to me

How did we get so far?
Back when we were stars

Stay close to me
Stay close to me
I surrender
