Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Two plates on the table
One high chair still there
Tiny socks in a dresser
Empty comb by the mirror
Cold air
I still hear you laughing
Down that long hallway
Then it’s just the fridge humming
And the clock ticking years away
[Chorus]
But the stars keep shining
On the darkest nights
Little silver windows
To a softer kind of light
I look up and I whisper
Every name I can’t hold tight
I’m breaking on the ground
But the stars keep shining bright
[Verse 2]
I drive past that playground
Pull over and hide my face
Your ring in the glovebox
Feels heavy as this whole place
Every mile is a memory
Every turn is your voice
I didn’t get to save you
I never got a choice
[Chorus]
But the stars keep shining
On the darkest nights
Little silver windows
To a softer kind of light
I look up and I whisper
Every name I can’t hold tight
I’m breaking on the ground
But the stars keep shining bright
[Bridge]
Some nights I curse heaven (oh)
Some nights I fold my hands
I don’t know where you’re living now
I just hope you understand
Every tear that hits my pillow
Is a prayer that lost its way
But I see you in that sky glow
At the edge of every day
[Chorus]
So the stars keep shining
Through these swollen eyes
Like a promise in the distance
Through a torn-up
Troubled mind
I look up and I whisper
“I will meet you when it’s time”
I’m walking through the flood
But the stars keep shining bright
