lyrics
Staring at you
As if in a dream
Can't believe that you're standing here
In front of me
Then I catch a glimpse
Of the look in your eyes
But I only see
The space lying behind
Empty and cold
Someone I don't even know
From a different world
Than where we met so long ago
There was a fire burning in your heart
Every day you set yourself apart
Everyone said you'd go so far
What happened to your dreams of touching the stars?
I ask you why
You silently fled
Was I part of a single
Thought in your head
You tell me a tale
Of what happened to you
But I don't take
A single word to be true
You're too empty and cold
Someone I don't even know
From a different world
Than where we met so long ago
There was a fire burning in your heart
Every day you set yourself apart
Everyone said you'd go so far
What happened to your dreams of touching the stars?
I used to know you
I used to love you
What happened to you?
I think only of you
I used to know you
I used to love you
What happened to you?
I think only of you
Before you turned empty and cold
Someone I don't even know
From a different world
Than where we met so long ago
There was a fire burning in your heart
Every day you set yourself apart
Everyone said you'd go so far
What happened to your dreams of touching the stars?
I turn to run
You don't understand
I'm staring at you
You offer your hand
But I'll stay strong
You'll never succeed
I'll always remember
Who you used to be
Before you turned so empty and cold
Someone I don't even know
From a different world
Than where we met so long ago
There was a fire burning in your heart
Every day you set yourself apart
Everyone said you'd go so far
What happened to your dreams of touching the stars?
I used to know you
I used to love you
What happened to you?
I think only of you
I used to know you
I used to love you
What happened to you?
I think only of you
