International Rock Star

(álbum: Nightsongs - 2001)

"The whole of England must be searching for me. Well, sooner or later, they're going to find me."
"Never. Because, you see...they're looking for you, alright. But nobody's looking for me."

International rock star
That would make the day go down easy
Crucified in my sports car
I've got high hopes that things end famously

And then there's love
To keep keeping you down
You find release
In the big time

International rock star
That would make the pain go away
The last one standing at the bar
Is the dream that'll have to do for today

And then there's love
To keep keeping you down
You find some peace
In the big time

(It's funny...)
Until then
Until then
Until then
(This is getting easy...)
I'll keep you
Locked up tight
In my collection

"How long are you going to keep me here?"
"I don't know. It depends."
"On what? On my falling in love with you? If that's what you think, I'll be here 'til I die. Now go away. Go away! Take it over..."
