Lost Stars

    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’d be damned Cupid’s demanding back his 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

    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

    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

    Just the same

    God, give us the reason youth is wasted on the young

    It’s hunting season and this lamb is on the run

    Searching for meaning

    But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

    Background

    “Lost Stars” is an original song performed by Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine for the musical romantic comedy-drama film “Begin Again.” The sparse, acoustic sound suits Adam’s voice surprisingly well — there’s an awesome falsetto run towards the end — and more than enough hooks to keep radio listeners happy.
