Analysis of There'll always be a star in the sky
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
Though the clouds rise higher than the eye
And sometimes you pick up on the lie
As the faces aren't soothed as you pass them by
Or the perfect children you hold start to cry
The TV breaks and you don't know why
The best calls you get are when sleep closed your eyes
Your funniest friends are the ones that get high and once you overeat you can't say try
They'll always be a star in the sky
