slipping through my fingertips
like liquid falling through the cracks
i kept my gaze on you
thought i was well prepared dressed in my hazmat
kept up with my own loud thoughts
wish someone would just make them stop
i had you in the palm of my hand
now you may be somebody else's man
whirling in a milky way of emotions
you are so far away yet so near
i can't bear this cross anymore
loving you is sadly no more
here it is midnight and i'm writing about you
you've been stuck on replay
i wiped my tears of our memories
but none of that will bring you back to me
whirling in a milky way of emotions
you are so far away yet so near
i can't bear this cross anymore
loving you is sadly no more
you'll move on and leave me in the past
and my oh my how it'll happen so fast
i'm regretting every decision i've made
cause you truly had me feeling great
in time you'll be back to me
that's something i believe
you're the right person, wrong timing
and it's killing my mind and i'm
whirling in a milky way of emotions
you are so far away yet so near
i can't bear this cross anymore
loving you is sadly no more
