an elegy for the romance i had hoped for;

fading stars

your life has been so dark

i see it in your eyes

i know

i can't blame who you are

a tragedy unveiled

but i can't help but love you

why is love blind?

how can i live my life this way?

i sit and cry everyday

cause you don't see it

look to the stars

right when they are fading

that's when i'll be praying

with all my heart for you

you wanted more

yeah you wanted something

pity i have nothing

to offer but my heart

how does sorry right

an entire life

of fear?

tell me how it mends

a soul out on the ledge

i can't let go

i can't move on

it's so wrong

for you to love someone this way

i sit and cry everyday

cause you don't see it (at all)

look to the stars

right when they are fading

that's when i'll be praying

with all my heart for you

you wanted more

yeah you wanted something

pity i have nothing

to offer but my heart

walking away

with my heart in my hands

all the pieces are slipping away

i hope one day

you'll find someone you love

then you'll understand the words i say..

look to the stars

right when they are fading

that's when i'll be praying

with all my heart for you

you wanted more

yeah you wanted something

pity i had nothing

to offer but my heart

how much longer

this disappointment

until i become inured?
