lyrics

Stardust Hero (for David Bowie)
by Solvej Schou ©

They will mourn you
Like no other
One eye blue
One eye made black
You threw your arms up to the sky
So slender
Let us love your voice forever
Let us remember

You're a stardust hero
You came down from above
You were man and woman
Hair spiked red
Snow glistening skin

Born in London
You were a mannish boy rocker
Then you grew
Into the Ziggy we knew
Soul in your veins
You became the Thin White Duke
So slender
Let us love your voice forever
Let us remember

You're a stardust hero
You came down from above
You were man and woman
Hair spiked red
Snow glistening skin

Bristol son
Bristol son
Mortality, addiction, chameleon
Mortality, addiction, chameleon
Your best friend punched you right in the eye
And you tumbled, you tumbled, you tumbled, you tumbled
You tumbled into the hospital for three long months
You tumbled into the hospital for three long months
Your daddy knew
You wanted to be
You wanted to be so famous
Your daddy knew
You wanted to be
You wanted to be so famous
So let us remember
Let us remember

You're a stardust hero
You came down from above
You were man and woman
Hair spiked red
Snow glistening skin

They will mourn you
Like no other
One eye blue
One eye made black
You threw your arms up to the sky
So slender
Let us love your voice forever
Let us remember

You're a stardust hero
You came down from above
You were man and woman
Hair spiked red
Snow glistening skin
