I can't speak
My heart is begging yours to stay with me
Just the thought of life without you
Makes it hard to breathe
I can't cry
I want to see the real you with my eyes
Before you're just a star up in the sky
I can't cry
Tomorrow I will read this
Oh how much I want right now
Just you alive and breathing
And your heart is safe and sound
