Brian B. - Star-Crossed Lyrics

Time's a funny thing
It can be a friend or an enemy
Life's a funny thing
It can sometimes get away from me

Then you came along
A blonde-haired song
And swept me away

But I couldn't have you
Like the way I wanted to
And it haunted me

Because we're star-crossed
An opportunity lost
And if I had an eternity with you
It'd seem like a minute or two

And if a minute was all I had left
I'd lay your head upon my chest
And you'd hear my slow heart beat
Out your name, out your name

The world's a crazy place
Full of wonders and full of mistakes
My heart's a crazy place
Tryin' to figure out what it can take

But you carry me
You keep me warm
Like a winter coat

Yet the darkness and cold
Still keep us apart
And it frightens me

Because we're star-crossed
An opportunity lost
And if I had an eternity with you
It'd seem like a minute or two

And if a minute was all I had left
I'd lay your head upon my chest
And you'd hear my slow heart beat
Out your name, out your name

Because we're star-crossed
An opportunity lost
And if I had an eternity with you
It'd seem like a minute or two

And if a minute was all I had left
I'd lay your head upon my chest
And you'd hear my slow heart beat
Out your name, out your name

Time's a funny thing
It can be a friend or an enemy
