b.a. robertson - to my star lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
her voice is husky when she sings
her throat is tired heavy breathing
from a body that’s seen much better times

[verse 2]
she drinks a million gins a day
to help her thoughts go tumbling backward
to a time when some young man always paid

[refrain]
and it’s sad to see that creole queen who’s dying
a fallen star that i know to be our loss
never thought i’d see the day when she’d be crying
and not to the sound of tumultuous applause

[verse 3]
she sings for cabarets in bars
and people come, they sit and chatter
you call this, paying homage to my star

[verse 4]
buy her one drink before you go
and she may talk to you of burlesque
and of vaudeville of ziegfield and his shows
[refrain]
oh but it’s sad to see that creole queen who’s dying
a fallen star i know to be our loss
but i never thought i’d see the day when she’d be crying
and not, to the sound of tumultuous, sound of tumultuous, applause
