David Bowie, Mickey Rourke - Shining Star (12" Mix) lyrics

Makin' my love like a shining star
Taking my love just a touch too far

Mm hmm hmm uhm hmm hmm uhm

Eddie boy lit like paraffin
Spending two weeks in a crack house
Burns on his brain like Chernobyl

Dean was seen with a two bag purchase
He was lying dead on his mother's bed
Someone for pray for until I met you

Life is like a broken arrow
Memory a swinging door
I could be your great misfortune
I can make you happy every day of your life!

Makin' my love like a shining star
Taking my love just a touch too far

Tessie turns tricks with a soul like ice
'cause love left holes
And four small kids breaking her heart

I've got windows, I've seen much vice
I've touched down with vermin
Cowardice, lice

And I say nobody cares what you do
Please be yourself to death
I could be your great misfortune
But you'll never find a
Bet you'll never find a better man!

Makin' my love like a shining star
Taking my love just a touch too far

Peter met Frank formed a dummy run gang
Worked heist or hit for 10 g's flat
Blew heads out of shape for
The name of Trotsky, Sinn-Fein
Hitler cash down
No hope heroes cover the page
With debts in hell and fingers in blood
Poor little bodies all covered in scabs
Threw it all away
For life in the grave (life in the grave)
Life is like a broken arrow
Memory a swinging door
I could be your great misfortune
Well, I could make you happy
Every goddamn single day of your life!

Makin' my love like a shining star
Like a shining star babe that's what you are
Like a shining star (oh)

Makin' my love (making my love)
Like a shining star (like a shining star)
Taking my love (taking my love)
Just a touch too far (just a touch too far)

Making my love
(making my making my making my love)
Like a shining star (like a shining star)
Taking my love (making my love)
Just a touch too far
(just a touch to, uh far)
Making my love (making my love)
Like a shining star
(huh, like a shining star)
Taking my love (taking my love)
Just a touch too far (touch too far)
Making my love (mmm hmmm hmm hmm)
Like a shining star (mmhmm)
Taking my love (mmhmm)
