How can you say
that all your love's drained away,
you've kept your hands cupped for far too long?
You filled my head with your song,
now how can you take that away?
My love for you is far, far too strong.
And I want you,
and I need you,
but every time I reach for you you're gone.
I turn my head in my bed,
the silken scent of your perfume
still lingers like the pale light of the moon.
You rocked my world,
I saw a flash of Jesus when you
came, his arms open to our flames.
And I want you,
and I need you,
but every time I reach for you you're gone.
And you just run away, run away,
you just run away child,
and you just run away, far away,
just run away child,
and you just run away, run away,
just run away child and you just run.

We Are Made from Stardust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
What’s supposed to happen if we only live once,
We work, we breathe, we struggle to believe in something, anything but ourselves,
But what if there’s no heaven, what if there’s no hell?
We’re all looking for someone to hold through the night,
To meet in dreams and talk of what lies on the other side,
Though waking may be painful, as I gaze between the stars,
I find my dreams come easy when you’re laying in my arms.
If our star ends tonight,
I want to be right here with you, standing by your side,
Take a leap of faith with me, face the blinding light,
Holding hands we'll wave and die laughing as we did in life.
Our time has come, we’re worlds apart, fighting for what we had at the start,
We left behind our falsest friends, both reached out to take a hand,
And forged a new beginning in the moonlight, made our promises
To make our love complete; by God, we did a daring thing!
We’ve sailed between the heavens, now our ships come back to earth
Let’s go our separate ways less we forget what we are worth
To one another; trust me now and I will show you what a friend can be,
I want you at the helm of us for all eternity
So if our star ends tonight,
I want to be right here with you, standing by your side,
take a leap of faith with me, face the blinding light,
holding hands we'll wave and die laughing as we did in life.
Though our love may never die, it’s better if we say goodbye
For now, and start again when things get better for you my friend,
I’m a slave to your desire, you’re the fuel for my fire,
And I’ll always burn for you the brightest of them all.
Like the North Star you can find me in the same place every night,
you have my heart as long as you can see it's shining light,
And though you’re in a black hole, I want you to know
My love for you went nova a long time ago.
If our star ends tonight,
I want to be right here with you, standing by your side,
take a leap of faith with me, face the blinding light,
holding hands we'll wave and die laughing as we did in life.
