About the Artist
Lyrics
[Verse 1] Cold fire You've got everything but Cold fire You will be my rest and Peace child I moved up to take a place - Near you [Verse 2] So tired It's the sky that makes you Feel tried It's a trick to make you See wide It can all but break your heart - In pieces [Chorus] Staying back in your memory Are the movies in the past How you move is all it takes To sing a song of when I loved - The prettiest star [Verse 3] One day Though it might as well be Someday You and I will rise up All the way All because of what you are - The prettiest star [Chorus] Staying back in your memory Are the movies in the past How you move is all it takes To sing a song of when I loved - The prettiest star [Verse 3] One day Though it might as well be Someday You and I will rise up All the way All because of what you are - The prettiest star
