Star Gertjan Wijnalda, october 1998 about this song written in a blaze and lost as quick as that - the lyrics below are a reconstruction of the original lyrics that i made a few months later. the inspiration was the breakup with my first girlfriend, an event that upset me for at least the next half of the year ... listen to it   [ realaudio ] there is currently no recording of this song available. Star (G.L. Wijnalda) I believe, the world’s still turning Even though we’ve gone through all our tears I believe, the river’s still streaming in the right direction The right way, the way we’re heading. Finally, you've told me That it's over, that we're done Though we were once like one We're finally apart As far as I can see, it was our island of green I could put my trust in just one thing Star, it was you that I believed in It all came so fast, I don't want it to go Star, you go like the last light of the sun All in a blaze And all there's left are memories I remember all the fun we had And all the tears when times were bad Oh, I know that I won’t forget What was written and what was said I remember all the time that we were on top Of the world Finally, you've told me That it's over, that we're done Remember Mandy, remember Believe Remember everything we've shared Do you really want to throw it all away? Now, I can put my trust in just one thing Chorus Well, it's time to say goodbye my star I hope that you've enjoyed the time we've spent Though I know that we'll be back again I don't know just how soon, oh my star Until we meet again Just think of me And I will think of you Chorus Memories of you
