lyrics

I see you everyday,
see you everyday
You're still so far away,
still so far away

You are my star
Shooting so far
away
far away

You know your wrong from right,
yeah, you know your wrong from right.
You know for Day for Night,
know your Day for Night.
And Bobcaygeon is not coming down.

You are my star
shooting so far away
Far away

You are my star
shooting so far
driving my car
shooting so far
away

far away
far away
far away
