VERSE

It's an awful feeling to watch the moon and stars above;
It's an awful feeling when you're alone without your love.
I wish I had a high stepladder
So I could scatter the stars.

REFRAIN

Shake down the stars,
Pull down the clouds,
Turn off the moon,
Do it soon;
I
Can't enjoy this night without you,
Shake down the stars.
Dry up the streams,
Stop all my dreams,
Cut off the breeze,
Do it please;
I
Never thought I'd cry about you,
Shake down the stars.
I gave you my arms,
My lips, my heart,
My life, my love, my all;
But the best that I had to offer you
I found was all too small.
Crush ev'ry rose,
Hush ev'ry pray'r,
Break ev'ry vow,
Do it now;
I know I can't go on without you,
Shake down the stars.
