It's a dirty day in L.A.
|
A rainy night in New York City
|
I feel like I'm so far away
|
From the good things that life has to give me
|
|
I know I never will be satisfied
|
But it don't make me worry
|
Step by step, I'll just take my time
|
And I'm never in a hurry
|
|
Star in the dust
|
But it's gonna shine someday
|
Star in the dust
|
I'm gonna be fine, yea, yea
|
|
I'm looking for a woman to hold me
|
'Cause love ain't just enough to get by
|
I recall what somebody once told me
|
They said, "Only the lucky ones will survive"
|
|
I know I never will be satisfied
|
But I'm never going to stop
|
I'll keep on trying 'til the day
|
That I'm riding on the top
|
|
Star in the dust
|
But it's gonna shine someday
|
Star in the dust
|
I'm gonna be fine, yea, yea, alright
|
|
When I feel like I'm fallin'
|
I tell myself, "It's only a stage"
|
And I hear somebody callin'
|
They say, "Pick yourself up and start over again"
|
|
I know I never will be satisfied
|
But I'm never going to stop
|
I'll keep on trying 'til the day
|
That I'm riding on the top
|
