以下是Cocteau Twins的一首歌曲的歌詞:
Verse 1:
Shadows on the ceiling
Moonlight on the wine
I'm feeling so alone tonight
But I won't cry
Chorus:
I'm floating on a star
In a world of my own
And I won't fall
Till the world is through
Verse 2:
Tears on the sand
Fading from the hand
Yet still so bright to me tonight
And I won't ask why
Chorus:
I'm floating on a star
In a world of my own
And I won't fall
Till the world is through
Bridge:
Life's a dance that you dance with your eyes closed
With all that's passed and all that remains unknown
Life is so alone yet you can't tell when it's done
You won't know you've won until it's too late to turn around
Chorus:
And if my love can never win you over
My tears won't find a new meaning
My life is over, now that it's been lived with fear
Now it's the fire of no passion, a perfect symphony of despair.
But my star still shines on...
(repeat chorus and bridge)
Outro:
Won't fall till the world is through... (3x)
But my star still shines on... (x2)
