about

Ask The Stars. When people leave us we are sometimes left with only the starts to appeal to, or the moon to howl at. Losing a mother, a father or a lover can leave us asking “who will hold me now”.

lyrics

Ask The Stars
Music and Lyrics by Kate Owen

VERSE 1
People say they can remember her smile
I can only remember her tears
And the days she would disappear
Leaving me standing there
She left me asking the stars

CHORUS 1
Who will hold me now
Who
Who will hold me now

Verse 2
Nights can be long when your waiting for lights
To drive to the top and kiss me goodnight
But they never come and I stay wide awake
They left me asking the stars

CHORUS 2
Who will hold me now
Who
Who will hold me now

VERSE 3
You told me you loved me for so long
Now your just happy I’m all alone
Then you turned like a jeckle child love turns to lust
Of the lonely kind, of the loneliest kind
He left me asking the stars

CHORUS 3
Who will hold me now
Who
Who will hold me now
