[Verse 1]
We were drawing futures on the ceiling light
Counting every reason we would be alright
You were my moon above the restless tide
Pulling every part of me with quiet light
You held my hand like it was meant to stay
Now we’re just a memory drifting away
No villains, no betrayal, no slammed doors
Just two hearts losing to something more
And I keep reaching for your silhouette
Like a prayer that heaven hasn’t answered yet
[Chorus]
You’re the brightest star I can’t hold tonight
Still burning in the dark, still shining in my eyes
And my love for you is a broken bone
It heals the wrong way when I’m all alone
We had our hearts aglow
Like silver oceans underneath your glow
Now you’re the brightest star I see from afar
My moon, my light, my scar
[Verse 2]
I still hear your laughter in the passing cars
Every city light reminds me who we are
And every time the moon hangs low and blue
I catch myself still looking up for you
Cause nobody knows the shape of your soul
The way I do, the way I always will
And every midnight feels a little strange
Knowing love survived but everything else changed
[Chorus]
You’re the brightest star I can’t hold tonight
Still burning in the dark, still shining in my eyes
And my love for you is a broken bone
It heals the wrong way when I’m all alone
We had our hearts aglow
Like silver oceans underneath your glow
Now you’re the brightest star I see from afar
My moon, my light, my scar
[Bridge]
Maybe some stories aren’t meant to end in hate
Maybe some lovers arrive at the wrong date
Maybe the moon and stars can never touch
Yet spend their lives confessing love
You were my moon, I was your tide
And neither of us chose the night that pulled us wide
Oh, I would’ve chosen you
Every time, every room
Every version of the moon
[Final Chorus]
You’re the brightest star I’ll ever know
The light I lost, the light that still won’t go
And my love for you is a broken bone
A quiet ache beneath the skin and stone
We had our hearts aglow
Like silver oceans underneath your glow
Now you’re the brightest star I see from afar
My moon, my light, my scar
