Starlight in your room
The clothes and clockwork strewn
Across the weary floor and bed and darkness
I feel my way around
I grip your hand, no sound
You rest your head on mine
And make no argument
Because love cannot save us now
It's here to make it's vows in silence
Then it lets us down
We're stripped to something we
Had never thought we'd be
Inside this world we're torn apart
Nearly 3 a.m
I'm sinking deeper in
The shadows pass across your face
So heartless
Neither one moving
I'm guessing what you think
It's harder when you don't look up
From darkness
But love cannot save us now
It's here to make it's vows in silence
Then it lets us down
We're stripped to something we
Had never thought we'd be
Inside this world we're torn apart
This could be my life
A lifetime in this night
The starlight gives us something to hold onto
But I know we can't lie
Tomorrow is goodbye
This moment and this feeling
Will be gone too
