Is it asking too much to be given time
To know the songs and to sing them
Is it asking too much of my vacant smile
And my laugh and lies that bring them

As the stars are going out
And this stage is full of nothing
And the friends have all but gone
For my life my god I'm singing

Chorus;
We'll take our hearts outside
Leave our lives behind
I'll watch the stars go out
We'll take our hearts outside
Leave our lives behind
I'll watch the stars go out

Is it asking too much of my favorite friends
To take this song for real
Is it asking too much of my partner's hands
To take this song for real

As the stars are going out
And this stage is full of nothing
And the friends have all but gone
For my life my god I'm singing

Chorus;
We'll take our hearts outside
Leave our lives behind
I'll watch the stars go out
We'll take our hearts outside
Leave our lives behind
I'll watch the stars go out

We'll take our hearts outside
We'll take our hearts outside

Chorus;
We'll take our hearts outside
Leave our lives behind
I'll watch the stars go out
We'll take our hearts outside
Leave our lives behind
I'll watch the stars go out (repeated)

We'll take our hearts outside
Leave our lives behind (repeated over Chorus)
