It’s Not Just Me, Even the Stars Miss Her Tonight

Verse 1  
There’s a half-empty cup on the nightstand still  
Lipstick on the rim like it always will  
Her side of the bed’s still cold as stone  
Funny how a house can feel so alone  

Got her picture sittin’ by the lamp  
Don’t know why I ain’t turned it face down yet  
Every little thing just brings her back  
Like she never really packed  

Pre-Chorus  
I stepped outside just to clear my head  
But the sky said what I ain’t said yet  

Chorus  
It’s not just me, even the stars miss her tonight  
They’re fallin’ outta heaven like they’ve lost their light  
Moon’s hangin’ low like it just can’t cope  
Tryin’ to shine but it’s barely holdin’ hope  
Yeah the whole damn sky don’t feel right  
It’s not just me, even the stars miss her tonight  

Verse 2  
There’s a breeze that moves through the trees out back  
Sounds like her whisper tryin’ to call me back  
And I swear I heard her laugh in the wind  
Like goodbye never really meant the end  

I tried to drown it out in a bar downtown  
But every song just spun me back around  
To a girl with eyes like midnight skies  
Now I just stare at them and wonder why  

Pre-Chorus  
I thought time would ease this kind of pain  
But the sky keeps callin’ out her name  

Chorus  
It’s not just me, even the stars miss her tonight  
They’re fallin’ outta heaven like they’ve lost their light  
Moon’s hangin’ low like it just can’t cope  
Tryin’ to shine but it’s barely holdin’ hope  
Yeah the whole damn sky don’t feel right  
It’s not just me, even the stars miss her tonight  

Bridge  
If she’s out there somewhere lookin’ up too  
Maybe she sees what I’m goin’ through  
Maybe those stars are just her way  
Of sayin’ she ain’t that far away  

Breakdown (soft)  
Yeah I talk to the sky like it’s her on the line  
Every flicker feels like a sign  

Final Chorus (lift)  
It’s not just me, even the stars miss her tonight  
They’re breakin’ in the dark just tryin’ to burn bright  
Moon’s barely holdin’ onto the sky  
Just like me, just tryin’ not to cry  
Yeah the whole damn world feels off somehow  
It’s not just me… she’s gone from everything now  

Outro  
Yeah it’s not just me…  
Even the stars miss her tonight
