[Verse 1]
Sometimes, they never come back
Leaving all of your dreams upon the tracks
In a flash, they're all gone
And the curtains all are drawn
And the funny thing is no one stops to ask

[Chorus]
How come the stars rise, but the lights don’t shine behind those eyes
Like they did when we were young
At the age of twenty-one?
And who says you can't lose when the flames burn down the morning news
And the best you'll ever know
Is a memory on your phone?

[Verse 2]
Sometimes, they never pull through
Maybe they even fall in front of you
In a flash, it’s too late
For the bets you'll never place
And the funny thing is no one stops to ask

[Chorus]
How come the stars rise, but the lights don't shine behind those eyes
Like they did when we were young
At the age of twenty-one?
And who says you can't lose when the flames burn down the morning news
And the best you'll ever know
Is a memory on your phone?
[Chorus]
How come the stars rise, but the lights don't shine behind those eyes
Like they did when we were young
At the age of twenty-one?
And who says you can't lose when the flames burn down the morning news
And the best you'll ever know
Is a memory on your phone?
