matters of the heart never mattered much to me

never really understood what the matter could be -

so i tried to think it over, take the matter in hand

but the matter of the matter isn't one to understand

just when i know i understand love

sure an i know there's a big sky above

just when i know i've made sense of it all -

stars fall.

just when i know the location of clouds

and i believe i'll say three words out loud

just when i know i've made sense of it all -

stars fall

how can a heart be for certain?

a matter of fact, not of flirtin'

count on love lasting forever

sure as your count on the weather

just when i think i'm a fool to let go

i won't fall for you - i won't let my heart show

just when i've settled the matter once and all -

stars fall

stars fall.
