Stars

When it's cold here
Without you
With the light on
Cause I have to
Do the shadows surround you?
Do you think of me, think-think of me?
When the night hits
And you're sleeping
Do you miss me
When you're dreaming
Cuz I'm tossing
And I'm lost in
What you did to me, did-did to me
When I try to tell you every day
You said you don't believe me anyway
Open up your eyes and look above
And if the stars see I'm lying
There's nothing really left to wish on
And nothing's gonna bring you back anymore
And if your heart still denies me
Then that doesn't really count but I do
Cause the stars won't shine without you
Feel the traces of your fingers
Hear the secrets of your whispers
I used to be so much better
At letting go
But I can't let you go
Every statue, every city, take a struggle
It wasn't easy
Be the story, be the history
That you wanna see, that you thought it would be
Now I don't believe in meant-to-be
But every voice I hear is telling me
To make you open up your eyes and look above
And if the stars see I'm lying
There's nothing really left to wish on
And nothing's gonna bring you back anymore
And if your heart still denies me
Then that doesn't really count but I do
Cause the stars won't shine without you
If the night falls around me
It's never gonna change at all
Unless we're gonna change it all
If the rain falls around me
It's never gonna change at all
Unless we're gonna change it all
And if the stars see I'm lying
There's nothing really left to wish on
And nothing's gonna bring you back anymore
And if your heart still denies me
Then that doesn't really count but I do
Cause the stars won't shine without you
I wanna be your last first kiss
Your starcrossed faded twist
Wanna wake up wherever you are
Wanna wake up wherever you are
Don't wanna see what we could've been
After everything, everything, everything...
