Starlight
Rachel Costanzo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I′ve been living life in circles
I keep on going round, going round
How can nothing never comes easy
Take me where the world can't reach me
Let′s going run away, run away
And I don't never wanna look back now

Every time I close my eyes
We're running out into the night
We going leaving all behind
Escaping in the starlights

Every time I close my eyes
We′re running out into the night
We going leaving all behind
Escaping in the starlights

Every time I close my eyes
We′re running out into the night
We going leaving all behind
Escaping in the starlights

Take me away
Left me into the sky
I'm not afraid
I just wanna feel the light

Every time I close my eyes
We′re running out into the night
We going leaving all behind
Escaping through the starlights

Every time I close my eyes
We're running out into the night
We going leaving all behind
Escaping through the starlights

Every time I close my eyes
We′re running out into the night




We going leaving all behind
Escaping through the starlights
