My Thoughts Are Stars
Tired of a one-sided love, but not quite ready to give in, hold a hand to the scattered starfield of tears.
It's dark outside, night has fallen, and all my thoughts are stars.
I cannot sleep, I stay awake, recollections keeping me from rest.
I think of you, how it was before we ever broke apart.
Staring at the empty walls, void of memory, I thought was best.
But seeing now my broken vow, this heart so fragile and tired.
I made mistakes, I tried not to break, or fall off life's high wire.
My thoughts are stars, as the night goes on, they twinkle in the sky.
Velvety softness, whispering words, I wonder if you think of me.
Eyes so weary from being held open, tired of the same old sighs.
A soft wind calls from far off east, I know that this is just a dream.
Making more than life once was, call me back again.
And wake me up from my dreams, I'll love you till the end.
