The Stars

Cut me into little stars and cast me out into the sky
High enough so you forget me
And I’ll look down every now and then
But I’ll send a fog to separate us.
I’m coming down and I can't believe it
I’m coming down now I finally feel it
I’m coming down and I can't believe it
I’m leaving, I’m leaving
and that's just what you'd want,
that's just what you'd want
I will never haunt you,
forget me like you ought to.
that's just what you'd want,
that's just what you'd want,
I will never haunt you, no
not the way I want to.
I’m a compass, I’m a captive in this orb that we call night.
you're moving slow on streets beneath me,
and you'll look up and wonder every now and then,
but you'll pretend that I’m just nothing more than stardust.
I’m coming down and I can't believe it
I’m coming down now I finally feel it
I’m coming down and I can't believe it
I’m leaving, I’m leaving
why must I see you in everything I do?
why must I see you in everything I do?
that's just what you'd want,
that's just what you'd want
I will never haunt you,
forget me like you ought to.
that's just what you'd want,
that's just what you'd want,
I will never haunt you, no
not the way I want to.
