SuperStar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trying to figure out what to do
Some colour photographs when we both had a laugh
It's a picture of me with you
My heart is on the run with each memory
We were lying on a sunny beach
I feel I'm dying, I let her go and now I'm crying
Found its way to me
The sparkle in your eyes
One of life's mysteries
Yeah
The negative of life which you capture on a photo
Doesn't hold up to the real thing
To focus all your time on a glossy two dimension
When you are hanging on to love by a string
I see it in the sparkle in your eye
It found its way to me
The sparkle in your eyes
One of life's mysteries
I believe that somewhere in the world
There is someone who can lead me to this girl
In a moment of passion, photoplay
It led me into love
Led me into love
It's a sparkle in your eye
It's found its way to me
The sparkle in your eyes
One of life's mysteries
It's the sparkle in your eye
It's got a hold of me
The sparkle in your eyes
I'm falling in love with who I see yeah
I wanna hold you
I wanna touch you
I wanna feel you once again
Yeah
Oh yeah
Sparkle in your eye
In SuperStar's song Sparkle, the singer is reminiscing about a past relationship by looking at old photographs. Despite being busy with thoughts in his head, he takes a moment to reflect on the memories captured in the photographs. There is a particular picture of him and the other person laughing together on a sunny beach that stands out to him. He feels like he's dying because he let her go and is now crying. Through the photograph, he sees the sparkle in her eye and how it found its way to him. He recognizes that the negative of life that is captured in a photo cannot compare to the real thing. The singer believes that someone in the world can lead him back to this girl, and in a moment of passion, he was led into love. He ends the song expressing his desire to hold, touch, and feel her once again.
The lyrics of Sparkle speak to the power of memories and the connection that photographs can make to a past relationship. The use of sparkle in the song is symbolic of that connection, representing the magic and mystery of love. The singer's desire to find the girl from the photograph also represents how people can hold onto past relationships and the hope of rekindling them. The use of "negative" and "glossy two dimension" in the lyrics also showcase how photographs can only capture a moment but cannot embody the complexity of real-life relationships.
