I try to steer clear of your eyes
Your touch still takes me down in flames
But from these ashes I can’t rise
To face this journey with no aim

A pregnant pause turns poisonous
The pendulum swings out of spite
A sense of loss we can’t discuss
As silence echoes through the night

And so we wish upon the stars
Life do us part
Till death unites us

If love has failed to find a way
Then is this worthy of the name?
The heartache of a dream denied
Believe we’ll be together on the other side
We’ll do much better in another life

I see the fear behind your eyes
Your words decry, they seldom praise
When once your passion unified
Oh, how I'm yearning for those days

And so we wish upon the stars
Life do us part
Till death unites us

If love has sailed beyond the bay
We can be rescued come what may
A twist of fate can turn the tide
Believe we’ll be together on the other side
We’ll be much better in another life
Beware the truth it never dies
