Something That's Lost

Those lost nights

And 4 am flights

Staring out the window

At the land we're passing by 

I remember you said

Those stars could never shine as bright as you

But then we landed

And this fantasy came crashing down around me

So thanks for giving me 5 hours of you

I'll keep those memories so close to me

And replay them in the dark

But I could never hold on to something that's lost

That long drive and 2 am cry

We both know this is goodbye

You told me all you knew

And as we lay there under the summer sky

You told me 

That those stars would never shine as bright as you

But I could never hold on to something that's lost

So look at you trying to do this again

That hurt to much for to let you back in

Maybe you should go and I'll let my demons win

But I could never hold on to something that's lost.
