10cc - The Stars Didn't Show lyrics

we came from miles around just to listen to your sound you made the night seem endless you cast a magic spell you played the part so well your music blew away the darkness we loved you for better we loved you for worse but we never took you for granted your lives were a blessing but they carried a curse the night that the stars didn't show you made me stand so proud i was lifted from the crowd the fire inside me burning the figure dressed in black sending shivers down my back deep inside my soul was stirring we loved you for better we loved you for worse the sweet inspiration that you gave us and i can remember we didn't rehearse the night that the stars didn't show mountains may crumble and worlds fall apart lovers and friends may desert me the road may be long but i know in my heart your spirit will always be with me the thrill to be up there a sea of faces everywhere i look i find you we loved you for better we loved you for worse but we never took you for granted your lives were a blessing but they carried a curse the night that the stars didn't show we loved you for better we loved you for worse the sweet inspiration that you gave us and i can remember we didn't rehearse the night that the stars didn't show
