I left the city when I missed the stars
History's decided by who wins
Worlds away I've lost the words to say
How small you seem to look as you drift away
And I can always tell when you're leaving
As I watch you move from blue to red
And I want to let you know that I didn't mean it
Your light will fade away 'till there's nothing left
You can only love from a distance
And when I see you I'm looking in the past
Your eyes meet mine after some resistance
Searching for a final passing glance
And I can always tell when you're leaving
As I watch you move from blue to red
And I want to let you know that I didn't mean it
Your light fades away and there's nothing left
