Lyrics
0:00Well a goodbye never seems finished
0:07Just like these songs that I write
0:12They hang aloft like stars in the night
0:15But there's nothing there but the illusion of a light
0:19And you you could've been mine
0:27Your mother she's an actress
0:31And we're all putting on a play
0:35Here's some conviction pretend that's all real
0:39Try to ignore how sad it all feels
0:43Yes try not to break her heart if you can
0:52Hold on
0:55To whatever you can until it's gone
1:00Carry on
1:02For none of us will be here for too long
1:14I'll try not to let the world and its darkness bring me down
1:22Think of the love and the beauty I found
1:26The simple things that I've left behind
1:30Oh the way he make me laugh
1:37But I hold on
1:43To whatever I can until it's gone
1:46I'll carry on
1:50For none of us will be here for too long
2:14We are a distant star
2:18But darling you're so far away
2:22You were never meant to stay
2:26I reach out to see
2:30If you're still here with me
2:34Baby we could've made it easy
2:40Couldn't we
2:44Now I will never know you
2:47You are just someone passing by
2:52And it makes me sad to think about
2:56All the stories and fates I'll be without
3:00But I think I'm getting used to the silence now
Well a goodbye never seems finished Just like these songs that I write They hang aloft like stars in the night But there's nothing there but the illusion of a light And you you could've been mine Your mother she's an actress And we're all putting on a play Here's some conviction pretend that's all real Try to ignore how sad it all feels Yes try not to break her heart if you can Hold on To whatever you can until it's gone Carry on For none of us will be here for too long I'll try not to let the world and its darkness bring me down Think of the love and the beauty I found The simple things that I've left behind Oh the way he make me laugh But I hold on To whatever I can until it's gone I'll carry on For none of us will be here for too long We are a distant star But darling you're so far away You were never meant to stay I reach out to see If you're still here with me Baby we could've made it easy Couldn't we Now I will never know you You are just someone passing by And it makes me sad to think about All the stories and fates I'll be without But I think I'm getting used to the silence now
