Away

"Away" (Nov. 2011)

[Verse 1]

I miss those summer nights

The stars in your eyes, they shone so bright

But did you know the brightest star

Came crashing down straight through my heart

And I see now where we are

Under the stars we sit on the gravel

Watching the sky, as its story unravels

Just like ours

But not as far

[chorus]

You were my light

You’ve shown the way

Then why now did you push me away

I tried so hard

To make you mine

So why now did you push me away

[verse 2]

The sun has set along with the moon

A different flower has bloomed

With unfamiliar thorns in its stem

Oh I can’t believe it’s happened again

dug up a hole and planted our dreams

Wished for the best, that’s how it seemed

And you were right

There wasn’t enough light

[chorus]

[Bridge]

I see your colors bleeding through

You’re still not ready, though I painted you

Now the palate stained with grey

What once was clear

Is now all I fear

[chorus]
