_______________

Crossing out—in ink—the lover
Ruminate like no other
In the dark we sway
No, we can’t live that way

Fall down, longing for summer
Each descent a chance to discover
We are capable
Becoming stars to light

The sky becomes our goal
Our love to have and to hold
Paving a new way through the strife
It’s tangible

We won’t stand that way
With two left feet walking two ways
We won’t let the days tear us apart
Time can’t erase us

To all of us who’ve forgotten
What it’s like to have our hearts soften
We’re just growing older
Getting bolder

To broken hearts that need mending
The friendless tired of only pretending
We are not alone
Choose to keep reaching for

The sky becomes our goal
Our love to have and to hold
Paving a new way through the strife
It’s tangible

We won’t stand that way
With two left feet walking two ways
We won’t let the days tear us apart

Life’s been cruel to us
Holding onto the times we’ve all been lost
It’s time to break away
Break away

The past is passed, my friend
Our empty eyes can shine again
Let’s take a lesson from the children
And make a wish upon ourselves

Because we’re becoming stars
We’re becoming stars
We’re becoming stars
We’re becoming stars
We’re becoming stars
