Know the bright lights of Hollywood 
Movietowns, a phony world 
Seen a few nights of wonder, 
Seen a few nights of hell 

Walkin' down the foggy streets of London-town 
Now I know it well 
Ev'ry light in the world is nothing 
To the light we know so well 

Starlight, shining bright, starlight 

Had a bit of life in high society 
The slums have seen me, too 
And the rich and poor would wonder, 
At somethin' old and new 

See it ev'ry night goin' slowly 'round 
Can't you see it's true 
Out there ev'ry man is equal 
Way out there in the blue 

Starlight, shining bright, starlight 

Take it all the way all night long 
Twinkle on, you stars 
I feel my brain is blinded, 
I wonder what you are 

Starlight, shining bright, starlight 

Starlight...
