lyrics

My love, you only think of where we are,
not where we could be,
and searching as I am, I can find no way
to make you see
that if you stay and see this through,
we could be happy in the end,
but now you've made me stop so you can
run away again.

But now I've come to realize that when I
had you by my side,
you'd been steering us around in one
big circle the whole ride.
And now I'm lost without you,
but I know I'll be okay,
because I know that you alone kept me from
finding my own way.

Turn away from this awful place,
it is your home no more.
You know I will wait, but only if you will say
I can stay forever yours.
So come with me and you will see
a galaxy of lights,
but of every one it is yours alone
that holds my heart tonight!

Because I hope that I love you,
this dark night it's just us two
Till the sun will rise and reawake our world.

I know that we can be,
With you, I can be free,
Your memory, a galaxy inside my heart.

And though you've left me
Out here under the stars,
In their light I've found you,
The shine that keeps me from the dark.

Now we're alone together,
Out here under the stars,
And I can leave you something:
I can leave you with my heart.
