Mark Owen - Stars Lyrics






Gonna build a rocket
Anytime you want it
Paint it pretty colours
Gonna light it up and take us to the moon
That's what I'm gonna do
That's what I'm gonna

Save up all the papers
Gonna need litter
Maybe take a minute
To get in my head directions all the way
You want to get away
I'm taking you

Through the eyes of the black hole
And the open doors
Through the cracks in the pavement
In conversation

From the top of the empire
To a state unknown
If I say that I'm leaving
Just got to hang on

'Cause we're just stars
Tryna get back to where we're from
And one by one
We're gonna leave this planet
So don't look back
'Cause you know that it's all just time
When you've got nothing on your mind
You made it

Somewhere in the future
Talk about forever
Take yourself a picture
Waiting in the rain for a postcard from the sun
The one that never comes
The one that never shows
The one that never, is building something

From the heart of the wreckage
In another zone
Are we losing our balance?
I think we've got vertigo

From the top of the empire
To a state unknown
If I tell you I'm leaving
Just got to hang on

'Cause we're just stars
Tryna get back to where we're from
And one by one
We're gonna leave this planet
So don't look back
'Cause you know that it's all just time
When you've got nothing on your mind
You made it

From the top of the empire
I think we've got vertigo

'Cause we're just stars
Tryna get back to where we're from
And one by one
We're gonna leave this planet
So don't look back
'Cause you know that it's all just time
When you've got nothing on your mind
You made it

'Cause we're just stars
Tryna get back to where we're from
And one by one
We're gonna leave this planet
So don't look back
'Cause you know that it's all just time
When you've got nothing on your mind
You made it

    Still love this song as much as on the day it came out .... It's one of the songs I want
    them to play when I leave this planet. Too bad Mark didnt succeed like Robert.
    Then again ... succes isnt everything isnt it? Neither is appearance. Hope
    you're doing good Mark anywhere you are today.

  2. H.... o....

    I really like how simplistic his videos are. He shines on his own!

  3. L.... ....

    Always something magical about the lyrics. God, I loved this.

  4. L.... ....

    Beautiful. still Beautiful.

  5. J.... O....

    Love this song it's one of my favorite songs its truly AMAZING song

  6. S.... D....

    this song speaks to my soul, very true, powerful, meaningful lyrics!

  7. M.... d....

    How I love this song! It's almost my motto in life.

  8. T.... j....

    Beautiful Video it is Nota 10 Felicition

  12. P.... K....

    A beyond brilliant song

  13. M.... ....

    You have always been there for Robbie though, even when the band split up..Thats called friendship...!

  14. F.... P....

    I love you Simo . I Miss you very much

  15. T.... J....

    cant think way he re joined howard & gary as he was better going solo. seriously like robbie he did cool records.

    T.... J....

    Also this album got really positive reviews, like for example four stars review in Q magazine, at least some musical journalists started to see him as more than a pretty face with a quirky voice, shame general public don't get it. I think that Mark gave up on solo stuff, because even after TT's come back success,TT fans weren't interested in his solo music. Well, like 98% of TT fans are actually Gary's fans.

  16. Y.... C....

    Me gusta todas sus canciones desde Mexico saludos Mark Owen

  17. l.... b....

    this seriously should have way more views ! a beautiful song by a beautiful and very talented man 💛

  18. J.... C....

    Me gustan esta musica mucho ...mark owen y gary barlow son los mejores ...saludos desde Perú

  19. k.... ....

    wish he would make more stuff like this or even neurotic songs i love this song is it strange i would like this playing as my funeral song ?

  20. M.... ....

    I'm so in love with Mark's album 'the art of doing nothing'...x

  21. S.... K....

    Good real music. It's so nice to listening to a unique artist with a good voice in today's music. A lot of it is about sex, drugs, money and killing and twerking. That to me is meaningless music and this is meaningful music from Mark Mark who is a genius songwriter and great singer and is sadly underrated solo artist from Take That.

  22. M.... ....

    I love this Song. It is an incredible fantastic Song.

  23. e.... ....

    I was looking for a video, shot from Berlin, send me here. What a good voyage there...

  24. R.... K....

    His voice so relaxing. Thanks to the Universe for Mark Owen.

  25. C.... T....

    I'd say that this album is a guilty pleasure, but screw it - I proudly wear this on my sleep as a marvelous record that I love

  26. i.... p....

    The beginning of the video reminds pictures from French comedy of an US astronaut who fell on a roof of maybe also five storey block of flats in a small French town.

  27. M.... ....

    First 2018 comment

  28. U.... Y....

    I don't think he will ever release another solo album :-(

  29. B.... D....

    Underrated

  30. O.... N....

    I still remember the first time I ever listened to this song, 4 years ago on the plane on my way home from vacation, as soon as I heard this song I fell in love. I have listened to this song every single day since then, EVERY SINGLE DAY.
    Please don’t stop posting music, I love you so much ♥️♥️♥️

    O.... N....

    i agree this song just hits the spot wish he would make more like this not keen on his other work but this is 99 out of 100 so close and i cant belive it aint got more recognition

  31. I.... M....

    Stars...!!! Congratulations for your success!!! Tour talent is excellent :D

  32. A.... G....

    Yeah love this album and this song. don't know why mark doesn't get the sucess that he deserve xx

  33. A.... G....

  34. M.... ....

    Found this after ages

  35. F.... M....

    #KILLMARKOWEN

  36. S.... K....

    soooooo underrated it drives me insane

  37. s.... h....

    while vocally he is weaker , in terms of lyrics and choice of topics he seems way more sincere and not self centered like the other 2

    s.... h....

    Vocally is not weaker, just not a conventional voice, which is really good. He is special not like 95% of singers who sings the same way.

  38. U.... 1....

    Mark can wear What ever he wants, he looks always pretty hot😉❤️

  39. h.... ....

    I love this song 💜💜

  40. E.... W....

    it honestly baffles and upsets me that Mark's solo career wasn't huge, like his two later albums are so ridiculously good!!! they top most of Robbie's music and come very close to topping alot if Take That stuff, it's just amazing

  41. Y.... J....

    Way too underrated he is... It's his lines that make TT's pop-crap special.

  42. l.... b....

    can't believe I spend all these years without knowing of the existence of this song, it's brilliant and mark is amazing.

  43. S.... Y....

    great song

  44. l.... ....

    love love love it!

  45. K.... S....

    Just anothet example of different voice that doesnt get enough credit.
    Everyone sounds so alike these days no one stands out like this anymore!
    Always loved Marks voice! His always been my favourite out of the band💕 Very insperational too his been through a lot and come out on the other side!
    Also love all of take that because a range of generations can enjoy there music

    K.... S....

    Khloe Smith all three solo members from Take That have such unique voices Robbie, Gary, and Mark. It's really a shame Gary and Mark are not huge like Robbie Williams is. Only he made it so big as a solo artist. Though Mark is so gifted as a songwriter and singer and this goes to show us that the music industry doesn't approve of this incredible stand out unique voiced artist.

    The music industry from 1920s-mid 1990s appreciated rare talent. Now all the really matters in music is only appnonise catchy pop tunes or some get lucky to get famous who are incredible artists of today. That's just my opinion though.

    Back then a lot of talented artists were famous. Now we get Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Meghan Trainer and Nicki Minaj who are apparently so big and famous and I just don't get it?

  75. R.... ....

    Prefer the Matrix Futurebound Vocal Remix :/

  76. W.... X....

    I can't believe how much this amazing artist is underrated, he should get much more recognition for his work.

  77. A.... K....

    Why hasn't mark got more publicity for this album he is an amazing artist and considering he's part of one the best bands ever how hasn't this won any awards! Xxx

    A.... K....

    Take that is only famous in UK. Other countries don't know them as much

    A.... K....

    Sorry but Take That are well known all over the world especially Europe, Asia and South America. They are only unknowns in the US.

  78. K.... F....

    MARK...You Are So GREAT!!!   LOVE From MEX. xx.

  79. L.... H....

    I remember going to store and buying this album 2 yrs ago. Though Im now listening to hard rock and metal, this album will always be one of my favourite, just as Mark <3

    #129 on the UK charts  =/

    This is a really good song though

  88. F.... p....

    hermosa canción!!!!!!!!!!!

  89. r.... ....

    Mark deserve so much more appreciation for his solo material, he's one of the most underrated artists out there. He's more than the cute one out of Take That (yes I agree he's the cutest person I have ever laid eyes on) but the amount of work and passion he puts into his writing and singing needs more attention instead of the crap which is out today! Hoping for more Mark Owen solo songs/tours!!

    r.... ....

    robmarkiegazTT I agree on all of that even Mark being cute my friend agrees as well so Yea I think he is extremely cute

    r.... ....

    True tea sis

    r.... ....

    RobmarkiegazTT. Yes i agree with you. Also he looks great in a ponytail. I just wished he had one when he was younger.

    r.... ....

    I couldn't agree more. Mark is amazing. I totally adore his voice. He is very talented. And may I just point out that Mark has had 4 solo albums. Whereas Gary has only had 3 solo albums. People always give Gary more adoration and praise for his song writing. But Mark is the most talented in my opinion xx

  90. E.... Y....

    Underrated artist, Brilliant Lyricist 

  91. C.... C....

    Such an amazing track, so much better than 80%  of the stuff radio stations play these days. Pity only commercialized sexualised american artists do well. 

  92. A.... G....

    Maaaaaaark <3

  93. B.... ....

    This needs way more attention; this is really beautiful!

  94. O.... ....

    Just great! Amazing voice, really special) 

  95. T.... ....

    Mark dovresti fare  l' attore, saresti straordinario anche in quello !!!  GRANDE!!!!

  96. D.... ....

    Amazing song. 

  97. L.... ....

    His voice is so special :)

  98. O.... ....

    This song is under rated. 

  99. B.... ....

    Happy to be back in Amsterdam!
