Another Star Lyrics

[Intro]
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

[Verse 1]
For you, there might be a brighter star
But through my eyes, the light of you is all I see
For you, there might be another song
But all my heart can hear is your melody

[Chorus]
So long ago, my heart, without demanding
Informed me that no other love could do
But listen did I not, though understanding
Fell in love with one who would break my heart in two

[Verse 2]
For you, love might bring a toast of wine
But with each sparkle, know the best for you, I pray
Woah, for you, love might be for you to find
But I will celebrate our love of yesterday

[Chorus]
So long ago, my heart, without demanding
Informed me that no other love could do
But listen did I not, though understanding
I fell in love with one who would break my heart in two, woah, woah

[Verse 3]
Woah, for you, there might be another star
But through my eyes, the light of you is all I see
Woah, for you, there might be another song
But in my heart, your melody will stay with me, oh

[Outro]
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Genius Annotation

“Another Star” is a lengthy latin disco song about heartbreak and the difficulties of getting over a break-up. It is the final song of the main body of Songs in the Key of Life – the next four songs come from the companion EP A Something’s Extra.

Released as a single in 1977, it reached #32 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The song is sung from the perspective of a man who found his true love, his “star”, and though she broke his heart and may find “another star” who shines brighter than him, he is sure his heart won’t be satisfied with anyone besides her.
