The Ballad Of Little Star Lyrics

(Ian Hunter)
You don't look a day over ten so why be
Do you have to
pretend to be older than you are
Beads and mirrors by your body
And in
some roadside bar you feel the pain
Little Star
Lost on a merrygo round,
on the game
You can never be found cause you don't know who you are
The
reservation killed your nation
And in some tourists car you feel the
pain
Little Star
You know you know
We grow and grow
We never
slow
We always win
And you feel lost
And you feel crossed
And you
feel tossed
Just like the wind
Your father will have told you of the
wind
Bowed those fine heads that, once proud, roamed the plains
They
sought nothing to gain 'til our fathers civilised
And broken hearted arrows
roamed the skies
Then you were born to feel the pain
Little Star
You
know you know
We grow and grow
We never slow
We always win
And you
feel lost
And you feel crossed
And you feel tossed
Just like the
wind
You know you know
We grow and grow
We never slow
We always
win
And you feel lost
And you feel crossed
And you feel tossed
Just
like the wind
Your father will have told you of the wind
