Everybody loves the star

When he's on the top

But noone ever comes around

When he starts to drop



But you were someone special

You stuck through thick and thin

But I was much too busy

Trying to shine

To let your love shine in



Let you slip away

I must have been insane

Stop in the name of love

Don't make me live my life in vain



(chorus)

Give me one more chance

That's all I ask of you

Just one more chance

I'll make it up to you

Just one more chance

That's all I ask of you

I'll build you a world for two

I'll make it up to you



Now since I'm all alone

I'm talking to myself

I know you're out there somewhere

Having fun with someone else



But a distant voice of hope

Echo from withinsayin'

(don't give up)

(your ship is comin' in)



Though my ship's alone

I'll play right to the end

I'm crying outside

Heaven's door

Won't you let me back in



You'll never know

What I've been through

Let your love shine in again

This time I'll shine with you
