Guiding Star

I know that all in love is bittersweet

What did you expect, a bed full of roses

to rest your head ?

I see the dissapointment in your eyes,

you're trying to forget

whatever it is that make you look so sad

I can't be your guiding star all through the night

but I could hold you in my arms and treat you right

like a lover or a friend

Whatever's right depends on space & time

You got the wildest dreams & fantasies

of what could have been

if only he had given in to your pleas

Do you know that eventually

revenge will break your heart ?

I can't be your guiding star all through the night

but I could hold you in my arms and treat you right

like a lover or a friend

As log as you understand

whatever's right depends

on space & time

Nothing becomes what you want it to be

unless you know a thing or 2, maybe 3

And even then there's not a chance in the world

you'll get out of here without being hurt

So waste your time on country roads

forget what the city believes

Wel everyone this and everyone that

but finally nobody's really free

- but you should know that dreams are like eggshells, so fragile -

Like a lover or a friend

As long as you understand

whatever's right depends

on space and time,

it could well be the best year of your life
