Lonely Star Lyrics

[Intro]
Literally at this second
Like in everything that's happening in the world
Being a human is pretty much the hardest thing to be


[Verse 1]
Backseat, sat at the local bar
Dressed to the nines to impress the dark
Damn, they sure look good together
I'm just hoping for good weather
Lost it all when I heard the sound
Windows down and the power's out
Damn, they sure look good together
I'm just struck down in bad weather

[Chorus]
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?

[Verse 2]
Words are there but they don't come out
Not my best at singing loud
Damn, I sure can't make it better
I'm just hoping for bad weather
I guess I'll be a somebody that nobody knows
Guess I'll never find the one that I can call home
Home
[Chorus]
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?

[Outro]
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
I'm a lonely star
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
