[Verse 1]
You said I’d be
A great mum someday
Then you vanished like
A mark in the rain
Now you’re holding
A life in your hands
Different hallway
Same wedding bands
[Pre-Chorus]
I scroll past your smile
Til the screen goes dark
Trying not to count
What I don’t have yet
[Chorus]
You’re a moon I can’t land on
Just a cold
Pulled tide
I’m starless in your orbit
Spinning on the side
Thought I wasn’t enough
Now I’m drifting above
You were never my future
Just a lesson in love
[Verse 2]
I replay words
You don’t remember
Tiny promise
In late September
You chose her name
I chose my silence
You built a home
I stayed in crisis
[Pre-Chorus]
Every lullaby
I will never sing
Echoes through a room
That I’ve never seen
[Chorus]
You’re a moon I can’t land on
Just a cold
Pulled tide
I’m starless in your orbit
Spinning on the side
Thought I wasn’t enough
Now I’m drifting above
You were never my future
Just a lesson in love
[Bridge]
Maybe someday
I’ll hold someone small (oh)
Won’t see your face
In their first fall
I’ll write my own sky
On a brand-new night
Where I’m enough
For this soft light
[Chorus]
You’re a moon I can’t land on
Just a cold
Pulled tide
I’m starless in your orbit
But I don’t need your sky
Thought I wasn’t enough
Now I’m learning I was
You were never my future
Just a shadow of us
