[Verse 1]
I still see your shoes by the doorway
Crayons on the kitchen floor
Your names on the wall in your handwriting
I trace them and I ache for more
[Verse 2]
Five little beds that remember
Stories I forgot to finish
I hear your laughs in the silence
Every echo keeps me in it
[Chorus]
My five little stars
I’m talking to you
I love you more than these miles I walk through
I’m so
So sorry I left you alone
I was lost
I was broken
I was far from home
But every beat in this heart is yours
Every dream that I chase is for you
Of course
My five little stars
Wherever you are
You’re still my whole heart
[Verse 3]
I miss sticky hands on my sweater
Your faces at the window glass
The way you would fight then forgive me
Like the storm and the sun would pass
[Bridge]
I can’t change the nights that I wasn’t there (oh baby)
Can’t rewind the years or the empty chairs
But I’m learning how to stay
If you’ll let me try
I will spend the rest of my life
Trying to dry every tear I made you cry
[Chorus]
My five little stars
I’m talking to you
I love you more than these miles I walk through
I’m so
So sorry I left you alone
I was lost
I was broken
I was far from home
But every beat in this heart is yours
Every breath
Every step
Every open door
My five little stars
Wherever you are
You’re still my whole heart
[Outro]
If you ever doubt it
Play this again
Hear my voice and remember then
You were never the reason I went away
You’re the reason I’m finding my way back today
