(Verse 1)
I’ve been drifting through the dark,
A quiet ship with a quiet heart.
Stars are whispering your name in ultraviolet tones,
And every constellation feels like coming home.
But you’re a billion miles away,
Burning somewhere in the Milky Way.
I trace your light but all I find
Are photographs inside my mind.
(Pre-Chorus)
Gravity keeps pulling me back to what we were,
But I keep floating further, further into blur—
(Chorus)
And I get lost in the Milky Way,
Where the ghosts of us still spiral and sway.
I reach for you in the cosmic haze,
But you fade like a star that forgets how to blaze.
Oh, I’m drifting, love, I’m slipping away—
Searching for you in the Milky Way.
(Verse 2)
There’s a silence in the silver night,
Where galaxies remember every fight.
Dust of ancient suns falls soft on my skin,
Feels like all the things we never could begin.
Your voice echoes through the nebula glow,
A shadow-song only the lonely know.
I call to you but space won’t bend,
It only shows beginnings dressed as ends.
(Pre-Chorus)
If time could break, if light could stay,
I’d pull you back from yesterday—
(Chorus)
But I get lost in the Milky Way,
Where the ghosts of us still spiral and sway.
I reach for you in the cosmic haze,
But you fade like a star that forgets how to blaze.
Oh, I’m drifting, love, I’m slipping away—
Searching for you in the Milky Way.
(Bridge)
Maybe we were never meant to collide,
Just passing comets on opposite sides.
But sometimes I swear I hear your heart
Beating in the black, trying to restart.
(Final Chorus)
So I keep lost in the Milky Way,
Where the ghosts of us still spiral and sway.
I’ll follow your shimmer through endless night,
Even if it’s only borrowed light.
Oh, I’m drifting, love, but that’s okay—
I’ll meet you again
Somewhere in the Milky Way.
