Sweet madness, it must be wrong

What kind of fool imagines love with all this going on?

The star's burning in the empty sky

And the city is aflame with a million lights

And they come and they go in the blink of an eye

People are like suns and they're burning up inside

People are like suns, the sun

Science will enable us to hear, to be crystal clear

To make diamonds in the shifting sand

Better take all the love that you've got

In a single hand

And they come and they go in the fullness of time

People are like suns, they are burning up inside

People are like suns, breathing into life

All that's good in us, say it's because

It can't be helped, doesn't stop me thinking out loud

I could have done something

They come and they go, they come and they go

And they come and they go

People are like suns, people are like suns

People are like suns

They go out tonight, set this town alight

All fade into white
