Stargazer
Siouxsie and the Banshees
Struggling with Stargazer? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
Been thinking how to escape? This strait-jacket of constraint Been thinking what can be wrong? With feelings that long to belong Stargazing me In an upside down sea So weary this strait-jacket dreamer So resigned to continue to suffer But you've learnt that as you grow weaker There's less hurt because there's much less to hurt Stargazing me In a tumbling sea Up in the galaxy Staring down on me Stargazer reach out to touch With your mind that frees you so much Stargazer kissing your kismet With bright jewel encrusted scars Stargazing me In tranquility Up in the galaxy Staring down on me
Struggling with Stargazer? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
