milky way

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
