Artist: Adam Levine
Please, don’t see
Just a boy caught up in dreams
And fantasies
Please, see me
Reaching out for someone
I can’t see
Take my hand
Let’s see where we wake up tomorrow
Best laid plans
Sometimes are just a one night stand
I’ll be damned
Cupid’s demanding back its arrow
So let’s get drunk on our tears
And God, tell us the reason
Youth is wasted on the young
It’s hunting season
And the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars
Trying to light up the dark
Who are we?
Just a speck of dust
Within the galaxy?
Woe, is me
If we’re not careful
Turns into reality
But don’t you dare
Let our best memories bring you sorrow
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer
Turn the page
Maybe we’ll find a brand new ending
Where we’re dancing in our tears
And God, tell us the reason
Youth is wasted on the young
It’s hunting season
And the lambs are on the run
We’re searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars
Trying to light up the dark
I thought I saw you out there crying
I thought I heard you call my name
I thought I heard you out there crying
But just the same
...
But are we all lost stars
Trying to light up the dark
Background
The Maroon 5 frontman plays a talented singer/songwriter in the romcom film “Begin Again” and also contributes a track called “Lost Stars” to the soundtrack. The sparse, acoustic sound suits Levine’s voice surprisingly well — there’s an awesome falsetto run towards the end — and more than enough hooks keep radio happy.
