Starry Eyes Lyrics

While you were off in France, we were stranded in the British Isles
Left to fall apart amongst your passports and your files
We never asked for miracles, but they were our concern
Did you really think we'd sit it out and wait for your return?

I don't want to argue, I ain't gonna budge
Won't you take this number down
Before you call up the judge?
I don't want to argue, there's nothing to say
Get me out of your starry eyes and be on your way

While you were on the beach
Were you dreaming all about your share?
Planning to invest it all to cover wear and tear?
We paid for all the phone calls, the money's off the shelf
Don't you know that while you're gone away
I've got to help myself?

I don't want to argue, I ain't gonna budge
Won't you take this number down
Before you call up the judge?
I don't want to argue, there's nothing to say
Get me out of your starry eyes and be on your way

While you were in the pool
We were meeting with the boys upstairs
Talking to the money men and carrying out affairs
We had no time for cocktails or working up a tan
The boys have all been spoken to
The writ has hit the fan

So I don't want to argue, I ain't gonna budge
Won't you take this number down
Before you call up the judge?
'Cause I don't want to argue, there's nothing to say
Get me out of your starry eyes and be on your way

No I don't want to argue, there's nothing to say
Just get me out of your starry eyes and be on your way
You get me out of your starry eyes and be on your way

What is the Meaning of Starry Eyes?

Ever found yourself picking up the pieces while someone else lives it up? This song captures the frustration and disillusionment of being left behind by someone who's off enjoying the high life. The lyrics describe the bitterness of handling all the responsibilities and financial burdens while the other person is carefree, soaking up the sun and making grand plans. The speaker is done with arguing and just wants to be left out of the dreamer's "starry eyes" and empty promises. It’s about standing up for yourself and saying enough is enough. #RelationshipStruggles #PersonalBoundaries
