When she laughs

She's got the power of a child in her eyes

And when you cry now

She'll hold you like a man's supposed to be held

I can't get into words how I feel

Get it right in this song now

I had to set her free

Needed a friend

Come back to me

Oh starry eyes

Oh, oh (repeat)

Standing alone in the light

You could see her cry

With a smile and a wink

And a sparkle in her eyes

She calmly sighed, I will be alright

Okay child you've had to take the pain

Of a man in the streets

You gotta let me in

Needed a friend

Even just for one night

Oh, starry eyes

Oh, oh (repeat)

Oh no, oh no, oh no

Oh, starry eyes

Oh, oh (repeat)
