This growing old is getting old
I often find myself here thinking
'bout the birds, the boats, the past lulls
That flew away or started sinking

And it's crazy here without you
I used to think this all was ours
We stay up late, debate
On how we find our way
You say it's all up in the stars

Well some nights I rule the world
With barlights and pretty girls
But most nights I stay straight
And think about my mom
Oh god, I miss her so much

And there are people on the street
They're coming up to me
And they're telling me that
They like what I do now

And so I try my best
When I tip or fall
To get right back up, back in your arms
If you're right here, why do I
Miss you so much?

I feel like I had it all
Back before I lost it all
Now I just wait for you to talk to me
But you won't even look at me, baby

And I been saying now, you
You're always holding on to stars
I think they're better from afar
Cause no one here is gonna save us

Oh, and me
Well I am fading in the dark
So don't you ever kiss me
Don't you wish on me
Why can't you see that no one's gonna save us
Oh, come on girl

So should I uh, did I uh
I can't believe she'd do this to me

I just need a helping hand
I close my eyes and think about tomorrow
It never came true, came true
It never came true

Oh, and you
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
Cause no one here is gonna save us

Oh, and you
You're always holding on to stars
I think they're better from afar
Because no one is gonna save us

Oh, and me
Well I am fading in the dark
So don't you ever kiss me
Don't you wish on me
Why can't you see that no one's gonna save us
What's gonna save us?
What's gonna save me now?

You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
