Lyrics
I?ve grown tired of being so close, just to find I?m out of reach
When I asked why this could not be: you were not you, I was not me
Can?t help think when I look at you, are you what you really seem
And I don?t know what I don?t see, steady hands, you?re holding me
Chorus:
And you shine like the stars, but I don?t know what you are
You?ve come down here to walk with me, I didn?t ask to go so far
When I look at your face, it?s like staring at the sun
You fill this space after all these years, but when I breathe you in
You burn
I feel weak, can?t hold on, don?t you let go of me
And I don?t think you realize everything you?ve done
Now I?m waiting for you to turn, wonder when you?ll go away
Try so hard but it still creeps in, would you love me enough to stay
Chorus:
And you shine like the stars, but I don?t know what you are
You?ve come down here to walk with me, I didn?t ask to go so far
When I look at your face, it?s like staring at the sun
You fill this space after all these years, but when I breathe you in
You burn
