The receeding moonlight in your hand Blue leaking paint flickering strands We were speaking but those words echoed alone The true words were fleeting Nothing showed When the stars shine down from heaven They will light the streetlights with their song I said my heart won't run forever That's alright it's alright it's a lie You were kneeling at the edge of your bed Bent pleading the scattered words in your head And I can see it a shadow cast alone And I don't know I don't know When the stars shine down from heaven They will leave a timid line drawn in our hearts Well and that line burns forever But it's a lie it's a lie it's alright Oh it's a lie it's a lie it's alright
