Impossible to reach

I watched you paint the sky,

Chasing constellations I could never claim,

You found a home in the light you became,

I was a shadow learning how to fly.

I held your heart like a borrowed thing,

Afraid my storms would drown your waves,

So I stood where the galaxies never begin,

Close enough to see, too far to touch again.

You were meant for the stars,

I was meant for the ocean,

If love were made possible then you were made impossible to reach.

You were a sunrise breaking through the dark,

I was the night that refused to stay,

A million miles hidden in a billion days,,

A door with no lock but no way to open.

I learned every road that led to you,

Still somehow got lost in the truth,

Some hearts are oceans without a shore,

Some souls are waves that can’t be pulled back anymore.

You were meant for the stars,

I was meant for the ocean,

If love were made possible then you were made impossible to reach.

Maybe in another life, another sky,

We’d be the same moon on the same night,

No gravity pulling us apart,

No distance of the heart.

But I was born with a deepness inside,

Too many worlds I could never align,

You deserved a love that could stay,

I was a comet burning away.

Don’t chase a ghost,

Don’t search the edge where you got lost,

You were the miracle I couldn’t hold,

The brightest thing I ever let go.

And if the stars ever call my name,

Tell them I loved you through the pain,

I just wasn’t built for the fall,

I was built somewhere you can't recall.

You were meant for the stars,

I was meant for the ocean,

If love were made possible then you were made impossible to reach.

oh-oh-oh-oh

oh-oh-oh-oh

oh-oh-oh-oh

oh-oh-oh-oh

You were meant for the stars, (oh-oh-oh-oh)

I was meant for the ocean, (oh-oh-oh-oh)

If love were made possible then you were made impossible to reach.
