About You're My Star

"You're My Star" is a pop rock song by Welsh rock band Stereophonics from their greatest hits album, Decade in the Sun: Best of Stereophonics. It was released as the lead-single on 27 October 2008 with "Forever" as the B-side. It was produced by lead-singer and guitarist Kelly Jones along with Jim Lowe while written by the singer. The song was written in a day and is a personal one to Jones, though he would not say what the song is really about, instead leaving it to listeners to make up their own theory. One critic stated that the song is written about his daughters, but this has not been confirmed to be true. The single went on to become the band's first to miss the top 100 of the UK Singles Chart and received a negative critic review.

You fly with angels wings
You've got my blood in your veins
And your eyes see everything
And they shine like diamond rings

You're my Sunday, make my Monday come alive
Just like Tuesday, you're a new day, wakes me up
Wednesday's raining, Thursday's yearning Friday nights
Then it all ends at the weekend, you're my star

At times, I cave right in
(Times I cave right in)
But this fights, we have to win
(This time we have to win)

And your songs you love to sing
(La la la la la, la la la la)
May your dreams forever live
(La la la la la, la la la la)

You're my Sunday, make my Monday come alive
Just like Tuesday you're a new day, wakes me up
Wednesday's raining, Thursday's yearning Friday nights
Then it all ends at the weekend, you're my star
You're my star, yes you are

It's a thrill to see your imagination
Just watching you is an education
What's in your mind, is my fascination
It blows my mind, it set's my heart racing

You're my Sunday, make my Monday come alive
(You make me come alive)
Just like Tuesday you're a new day, wakes me up
(You make me come alive)
Wednesday's raining, Thursday's yearning Friday nights
(You make me come alive)
Then it all ends at the weekend, you're my star
