Shake down the stars, pull down the clouds,

Turn off the moon, do it soon,

I can't enjoy the 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 love, my life, my all,

But the best that I had to offer you

I found was all too small.

Crush every rose, hush every pray'r,

Break every vow, do it now,

I know I cannot live without you,

Shake down the stars.
