It is the third track from her unreleased album ''[[Sirens (album)|Sirens]]''. It was leaked before the rest of the album on December 16, 2011, alongside "[[Money Hunny (song)|Money Hunny]]". The song was also featured on the ''[[The Phenomena of Lizzy Grant (mixtape)|The Phenomena of Lizzy Grant]]'' mixtape. ==Background== The song was uploaded to Del Rey's Myspace profile in 2006.<ref>[https://imgur.com/A296Y Screenshot of Lizzy Grant's Myspace page. Accessed April 7, 2024.]</ref> Unlike most of the songs on ''[[Sirens (album)|Sirens]]'', it features added reverb. The song was written about the singer Nick Drake. In a YouTube comment about the song, Del Rey said ''"''This is from when i was 17. have no idea where u got it from.''"'' It is said that a different version of the song exists which features extra lyrics. ==Cross-references== *Del Rey sings about being a star in "[[Is It Wrong (song)|Is It Wrong]]" and "[[Love Song (song)|Love Song]]". *Stars are also mentioned in "[[California (song)|California]]", "[[Damn You (song)|Damn You]]", "[[Dum Dum (song)|Dum Dum]]", "[[Dynamite (song)|Dynamite]]", "[[Hey Blue Baby (song)|Hey Blue Baby]]", "[[Lucky Ones (song)|Lucky Ones]]", "[[Prom Song (Gone Wrong) (song)|Prom Song (Gone Wrong)]]", "[[Ride (song)|Ride]]", "[[Starry Eyed (song)|Starry Eyed]]", "[[Video Games (song)|Video Games]]" and "[[Pretty When You Cry (song)|Pretty When You Cry]]", among several others. *Wind is also mentioned in "[[Change (song)|Change]]". ==Lyrics== {{Scroll_box||content = <poem> Well, you know it and I know it, I'm gonna be a star You won't, you won't get me very far Don't say hello, it's already time to go Oh, the wind is carrying Me home, me home, me home again Well, you know it and I know it, I'm gonna be a star You won't, you won't get me very far You're so alive, back in the countryside (Ah) Oh, my soul, rise up and go Beyond, beyond to what you know </poem>}} ==References== {{Reflist}} {{Navbox album Sirens}} [[Category:Songs]] [[Category:Sirens songs]] [[Category:Unreleased songs]] [[Category:The Phenomena of Lizzy Grant songs]]
