A window opened in the sky The night that we first kissed And though we slept beneath the stars You were wide awake I lay bewildered by your touch Heard your almost sighs Felt your tears fall on my skin As if you'd break You saw the end in our beginning Strange the way it goes Was your heart too shadowed by your scars? You whispered, "This can never be" As you looked into the sky What did you see inside the stars? And in the end, you couldn't bear What you could not control So with one unfinished prayer I let you disappear So many words you never said So many songs that died What pulled us from each other's arms was fear And now you come and stand before me? After all these years You pull me in and tell me you were wrong But don't you know the summer's over? Oh, you waited too long What did you see inside the stars? You know we had a chance that summer I should not have let go Should have ripped those stars out of the sky I always knew you loved me You would not let it show Do you know how long I've wondered why? And now you come and stand before me After all these years You pull me in and tell me you were wrong But don't you know the summer's over? Oh, you waited too long Was there such danger in the stars? Why did you sink into the stars? What did you see inside the stars?
