I put my wheels to the sky, left your ghost behind,
You stood there frozen, with a cross I couldn't find.
Your eyes were oceans, but you never let them drown,
We lost the light, while we were still spinning 'round.
I gave you the stars, tried to pull 'em down,
Held on through fire, held on through the sound.
But some love’s a flame, it fades to the night,
And you can’t heal what’s broken in flight.
You held me like a memory, soft and cold,
This road we walked was more than I could hold.
Now you’ve found a new sunrise to chase,
While I’m just echoes in an empty space.
I gave you the stars, tried to pull 'em down,
Held on through fire, held on through the sound.
But some love’s a flame, it fades to the night,
And you can’t heal what’s broken in flight.
I loved you like rain on a desert shore,
Now I don’t know if I can love you anymore.
Still, I won’t look back at the rivers we’ve crossed,
I’d do it again, but not at the cost.
I gave you the stars, let 'em slip through my hands,
But love's just a whisper in shifting sands.
I’ll drive through the dark, let the past be the past,
Some roads are just dreams that never last.

Now you’ve found a new sunrise to chase,
While I’m just echoes in an empty space.

Held on through fire, held on through the sound.
But some love’s a flame, it fades to the night,
And you can’t heal what’s broken in flight.
I loved you like rain on a desert shore,
Now I don’t know if I can love you anymore.
Still, I won’t look back at the rivers we’ve crossed,

I gave you the stars, let 'em slip through my hands,
But love's just a whisper in shifting sands.
I’ll drive through the dark, let the past be the past,
Some roads are just dreams that never last.
