Catch a star as it falls and hold it in your hand Feel the heat, still it burns Searing embers of your glorious sun Oh, this is painful, this endless aching need The very thing I long for is what brings me to my knees You walked in to my world, won me over, caught me so off guard But I gave in to the wonder, to the poetry of our souls set fire And oh it was beautiful, our tender hearts entwined And I thought we could conquer any mountains we would climb And now I'm waiting on the light To ease the fury of this one desire I'm trying to be patient, I'm trying to stay high I'm trying to find the wisdom in this long goodbye Stop the world, stop the noise I've heard enough, my head is spinning 'round Give me more than words to feed me Truth I can believe in, give me solid ground But our days are measured in fraying threads of gold Every day unraveling 'til there's nothing left to hold Now I'm still waiting on the light To ease the fury of this losing fight I'm trying to forgive you, to hold my head up high I'm trying to find the wisdom in this long goodbye I gave my love, gave it all But in the end, it didn't change a thing You can't love a man out of his fate Can't tame a head and heart, so out of sync But, oh, I am grateful this will not bring me down The tides are always gonna turn and come on back around Oh, oh
