—Andy Vo
We used to spend the endless nights counting stars
And every shooting star that passed through darkened skies
Told all of the miracles that had yet to come
We used to share our stories of a perfect world
And every person that we had described
Was nothing compared to you and I
We used to walk together throughout the night
And every second we held hands
The only moment I ever felt safe was with you
Throughout the summer skies
We’d look above and the light was always there
To lead us from our past
Throughout the darkened skies
We look around and lights are nowhere to be found
To show us on our way
Throughout the winter nights
You look above and I am always there
To lead you to your future
Now there are empty days of staring back at me
Now we’ll find a way to chase forgotten dreams
That lead to broken promises, just memories
Now there’s nothing in this world to believe in
We are slipping away from the curse that we lived
Our future we dreamt fading away
As we lie together in the open grass
We stare into the darkened skies
Only to watch the whole world light up
We promise that one of us will be that blue star in the sky
Big and bright shining over the night
If only you were here tonight
