Letra de Don Black do Musical "Startlight Express" de Andrew Lloyd-Webber and Richard Stilgoe

Pearl:
I guess I'm not too good at keeping love alive for long.
I think I've found the answers but the answer's always wrong.
My first love was my true love and it should have been my last.
The only time I'm happy's when I'm dreaming in the past.

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me,
The way it used to be.
Back then was when
We touched the Starlight.

Sometimes you turn away from what your heart tells you is right
And so you settle for whatever gets you through the night.
The flame you thought was dead may suddenly begin to burn
And broken hearts can be repaired, that's something that you learn.

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me,
The way it used to be.
Back then was when
We touched the Starlight.

Rusty:
I've re-lived every moment that I ever shared with you.
What fools we were to end a dream that looked like coming true.

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me,
The way it used to be.

Pearl & Rusty:
Back then was when
We touched the Starlight.

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me,
The way it used to be.
Back then was when
We touched the Starlight.

I guess I'm not too good at keeping love alive for long.
I think I've found the answers but the answer's always wrong.
My first love was my true love and it should have been my last.
The only time I'm happy's when I'm dreaming in the past.

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me,
The way it used to be.
Back then was when
We touched the Starlight.

Next time you fall in love
It better be with me,
The way it used to be.
Back then was when
We touched the Starlight.
