Starlight
Slash featuring Myles Kennedy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Light years from tomorrow
Far beyond yesterday
She is watching
Heart aching with sorrow
She is broken, as she waits
Hoping when all is said and done
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna find a place where we belong
(Where we belong)
And so you know, you'll never shine alone
There are shadows sleeping on the horizon
Leave us scared and so afraid
As the fallout of a world divided
It brings her tears and so much pain
And so we take cover from the dark
Hoping to find where we can start
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna find a place where we belong
(Where we belong)
And so you know, you'll never shine alone
Starlight, we'll find a place
Where we belong, we belong
You will see as the mountains fall and turn to dust
That there's one thing that won't change
I believe there is something within each of us
That always stays
That will always remain
As long as love never fades
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna find a place where we belong
And so you know, you'll never shine alone
Starlight we'll find a place
Where we belong, we belong
She is watching
Heart aching with sorrow
She is broken, as she waits

In the distance
Far away from here
Light years from tomorrow
So far away that it's like it's in the future
Far beyond yesterday
Even farther away than yesterday
She is watching
There's someone watching
Heart aching with sorrow
Their heart is hurting with sadness
She is broken, as she waits
She's very sad and waiting for something that may never come
Hoping when all is said and done
Having hope that things will turn out good in the end
We learn to love and be as one
We'll learn how to love and get along with each other
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
Don't be sad, Starlight
We're gonna make it right before tomorrow
We're going to fix things before it's too late
We're gonna find a place where we belong
We'll eventually find a place where we fit in
(Where we belong)
In a place that is meant for us
And so you know, you'll never shine alone
You'll always have someone to shine with you
There are shadows sleeping on the horizon
There are problems that are just waiting to happen
Leave us scared and so afraid
They make us scared and worried
As the fallout of a world divided
The negative consequences of a world that is not united
It brings her tears and so much pain
It makes her cry and causes her a lot of pain
And so we take cover from the dark
We try to protect ourselves from the bad things
Hoping to find where we can start
Looking for a place to begin
Starlight, we'll find a place
We'll find a place, Starlight
Where we belong, we belong
Where we're meant to be
You will see as the mountains fall and turn to dust
Even the biggest things can eventually disappear
That there's one thing that won't change
But there's one thing that will always stay the same
I believe there is something within each of us
I think that there's something important in all of us
That always stays
That will always be there
That will always remain
That will always be there no matter what
As long as love never fades
As long as we never stop loving each other
Starlight we'll find a place
We'll find a place, Starlight
Where we belong, we belong
Where we're meant to be
She is watching
There's someone watching
Heart aching with sorrow
Their heart is hurting with sadness
She is broken, as she waits
She's very sad and waiting for something that may never come

Far beyond yesterday
She is watching, heart aching with sorrow
She is broken, as she waits
Hoping when all is said and done
We learn to love and be as one, ooh-oh

And so you know, you'll never shine alone
There are shadows sleeping on the horizon
That leave us scared and so afraid
Of the fallout of a world divided
It brings her tears, oh, and so much pain
And so we take cover from the dark
Hoping to find where we can start
Here we go
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don't you cry

And so you know, you'll never shine alone
Starlight we'll find a place where we belong
Where we belong
You will see, as the mountains fall and turn to dust, yeah
There's one thing that won't change, oh
'Cause I believe there's something within each of us that always stays
That will always remain as long as Slash's still around, yeah
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna find it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don't you cry
We're gonna find a place where we belong
Where we belong
And so you know, you'll never shine alone
Starlight, we'll find a place where we belong
Where we belong
She is watching, heart aching with sorrow
She is broken as she waits...
Thank you so much!

Slash - Starlight
In the distance light years from tomorrow
Far beyond yesterday
She is watching, heart aching with sorrow
She is broken as she waits
Hoping when all is said and done
We learn to love and be as one
Oh starlight don’t you cry
We’re gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh starlight don’t you cry
We’re gonna find a place where we belong
(Where we belong)
And so you know
You’ll never shine alone
There are shadows steeping the horizon
That leave her scare and so afraid
As the fallout of a world divided
Brings her tears and so much pain
So we take cover from the dark
Hoping to find where we can start
Oh starlight don’t you cry
We’re gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh starlight don’t you cry
We’re gonna find a place where we belong
(Where we belong)
And so you know, you’ll never shine alone
Starlight we’ll find the place where we belong
(We belong)
You will see as the mountains fall and turn to dust
That there’s one thing that won’t change
I believe there is something within each of us
That always stays
That will always remain as long as love never fades
She is watching, heart aching with sorrow
She is broken as she waits

Slash & Myles Kennedy
Luz Estelar
Na distância, anos luz do amanhã
Muito além do ontem
Ela está observando, o coração sofrendo com mágoa
Ela está arrasada enquanto espera
Esperando quando tudo estiver dito e feito
Nós aprendamos a amar e ser como um
Oh Luz estelar, não chore
Nós acertaremos tudo antes de amanhã
Oh Luz estelar, não chore
Nós vamos encontrar um lugar ao qual nós pertencemos
(Ao qual nós pertencemos)
E se quer saber
Você nunca vai brilhar sozinha
Existem sombras se acentuando no horizonte
Que a deixa assustada e com medo
Enquanto a repercussão de um mundo dividido
Traz-lhe lágrimas e muita dor
Então nos protegemos das trevas
Esperando encontrar onde possamos começar
Oh Luz estelar, não chore
Nós acertaremos tudo antes de amanhã
Oh Luz estelar, não chore
Nós vamos encontrar um lugar ao qual nós pertencemos
(Ao qual nós pertencemos)
E se quer saber, você nunca vai brilhar sozinha
Luz estelar, encontraremos o lugar ao qual nós pertencemos
(Nós pertencemos)
Você verá quando as montanhas caírem e virarem poeira
Que existe uma coisa que não vai mudar
Acredito que há algo dentro de cada um de nós
Que sempre permanece
Que sempre permanecerá enquanto o amor não desaparecer
Ela está observando, o coração sofrendo com mágoa
Ela está arrasada enquanto espera

I honestly think that this is one of the best songs ever. Why is it so unknown. I know it isn't really a genre what is popular right now, sadly, but you got to admit, this is an amazing song.
Luann Johnson
I've loved Myles Kennedy's voice from the first time I heard. Pure magic. Slash, goes without saying....rock on.....
Trent Oleksuik
Not a vocalist in rock today even comes close to what Myles Kennedy puts forth in all songs he sings...the guy is amazing...
T K Dennis
+Trent Oleksuik Just saw Slash and Myles play together last week and they nailed this song and every other one they sang too, Myles is just an epic badass
Mejislasher
+Trent Oleksuik there are still plenty, but theyre all dudes from the 80's. havent seen a contemporary of this caliber
Sunshine Tree
So agreed! Myles has more than a 5 octave range, that he uses with variety and precision!!
Aphrodyte Girl
I don't think that word octave means what you think it means.
Apple Peel
Trent Oleksuik the only one who's close to Myles is Alex Turner. His voice is incredible too
Stephen Bowker
I love Slash, I love Alter Bridge, Love this song. Myles Kennedy has one of the best voices in rock history. All this makes this song just perfect!
