I'm lyin under the stars. Talking to myself And suddenly I remember you I remember all the scars The years up on the shelf The lines you tied to me that pulled me through.
But you never knew the lion You only knew the lamb And maybe that's for the best But I remember how you were cryin' And I'll never understand Why God always makes us fail our last test.
And I'm lyin' under the stars Counting the scars in the ceiling I'm trying not to think You might have never made it through As far as the earth is from the heavens My thoughts are chasing after you And as I wonder where you are Suddenly the stars fade from view.
You lulled me to sleep With stories I would keep Even if the details kind of blurred And I remember I heard In more than just words That love could over come a broken world
And I'm lyin' under the stars Counting the scars in the ceiling I'm trying not to think You might have never made it through As far as the earth is from the heavens My thoughts are chasing after you And as I wonder where you are Suddenly the stars fade from view.
The hand that held me up Shivered as it fell And I just stood there saying it would pass I never should have let that moment pass
And I'm lyin' under the stars Counting the scars in the ceiling I'm trying not to think You might have never made it through As far as the earth is from the heavens My thoughts are chasing after you And as I remember your eyes All the sugar coated lies I remember your smile And those long homeward miles I remember how you cried Years after grand pa died I remember holding your hand And me trying to understand How something once so strong Could shiver too I prayed but I could not believe it was true That you...
I remember your eyes And suddenly the stars blur from view.
