The Stars at Saint Andrea

The Devics The Stars at Saint Andrea Lyrics
1.All Your Beautiful Trees

Lyricist:Sara Lov, Dustin O'halloran

How many times will you keep
Hitting your head against the wall?
'Til you realize
It just makes you fall

All your beautiful trees
Bring me to my knees
I wish I could stay here
And make a little heaven with you here

How many times will you go back with her?
'Til you realize it will never work
Now look what you've gone and done
Can't you see she's not the one?

All your beautiful trees
Bring me to my knees

Now look what you've gone and done
Can't you see she's not the one

I wish I could stay here
Make a little heaven with you here

Baby, I'm so good for you
And you know it's true


2.Safer Shores

Lyricist:Sara Lov, Dustin O'halloran

This is not the time, this is not the place
We could never live here
If we wanted to hold your tongue
Until we reach safer shores that's for sure

'You're a liar', she said to him
And he stood there blankly saying nothing
How we came this far
I'll never know, I'll never know

Well what did you expect
Things don't turn the way?
We want them to so here it is one last look
Now say good bye to all those dreams you had

'Liar', she said to him
And he stood there blankly saying nothing
How we came this far
I'll never know, I'll never know


3.Stretch Out Your Arms

Lyricist:Sara Lov, Dustin O'halloran

Lay down and stretch up your arms
There will be no one to harm us now
I am radiating in your hand
We're in the glass

Oh Lord, tell me where to go
Show me and I will follow

And I'll be good

Lay down and stretch out your arms
So I can fit right on your chest
Wrap tight around me my love
It's gonna hurt when you see what you've done

And I'll be there

Oh Lord, tell me where to go
Show me and I will follow
You could deepen my wounds
Or you could tell me that I am good

Lay down and stretch out your arms
Now I know that you meant me no harm
Here in the safety of my bed
How many times must I break


4.Connected By A String

Lyricist:Sara Lov, Dustin O'halloran

Two sisters apart
Connected by a string
Never mind the bombs in Tel Aviv
Never mind me chasing empty dreams

I will not go back there
And she will never leave
And so the only thing is our little string

The same stars above us
But miles in between
And so the only thing
Is our little string

Two sisters apart
Connected by a dream
I see her in my dreams
She's always in my dreams

She was once a tiny thing
Always running right to me
And I would run to her
Connected by a string

The same stars above us
But miles in between
And so the only thing
Is our little string


5.The End & The Beginning

Lyricist:Sara Lov, Dustin O'halloran

This delay is what you gave me
But that was fine
'Cause I would rather wait
Than go down that road

The road I know so well
Like mud or quicksand
I was stuck but now I'm in your hand

Is it getting cold?
I could try to move it more
Are we getting old?
I don't notice anymore

And what about the bones
Hidden in a box
If everything I owned
Turned this into rocks

Is this getting close?
I could try to move it more
Are we going home?
I can't stay here anymore

And how long will this go
Until it changes?
How long before you know
That I love you?
And how long 'til it goes
And turns to nothing


6.Red Morning

Lyricist:Sara Lov, Dustin O'halloran

Streams of streets that seem to change you
But you know they'll always find you
Know one ever really knows you in light of the heart
That beats over your head until you listen to it
Until you run right to it, there's no right way to do it

It's the light of the heart
That beats over your head
Turn up the stereo I can't hear
When you talk so loud

I want to go wherever it goes
I want to be there in the red, red, red, red morning

You found places to stimulate you
But you know they'll never change you
You could run forever and find
That the heart still beats over your head
Turn up the stereo I can't hear when you talk so loud

I want to go wherever it goes
I want to be there in the red, red morning


7.Don't Take It Away

Now don't take this away
I could do that too
Don't take this away
I could finish you
We had one eye closed
All that time

Follow me to nowhere
If you want to go there
Follow me to nowhere

You could arrange my trial
My head was heavier than light
And I got really good at telling lies
And making up a story every night

Follow me to nowhere
If you want to go there
Follow me to nowhere

Don't take this away
You know I couldn't end it anyway
Your holiness is blinking in my face
And you could really put me in my place

Follow me to nowhere
If you want to go there
Follow me to nowhere


8.In Your Room

In that room did you care?
I never knew anyone who stared at me
Quite like the way your staring at me now
And if all these empty words you speak
Could change the boy, who's at your feet?
I think you need not look farther than your arms

'Cause I'll never change
And you'll stay the same
And I'll never change

If I could change the boy at my feet
To a man who didn't have to speak
I wouldn't have to use my arms to measure
Something about the room that day
And how I knew I'd go away

Now all I can do is stare at you
And think what I'm about to do

'Cause I'll never change
And you'll stay the same
And I'll never change

I stared at the light too long
And I did everything to keep from falling
When all is said and done
Do you think it was worth it?

Patterns move across the floor
And it just doesn't feel the same, I'm sorry
When all is said and done
I think it was worth it

'Cause I'll never change
And you'll stay the same
And I'll never change
