We sold our insecurities
And took a chance to dance on borrowed time
Embracing the absurdity
Convinced that we'd pull off the perfect crime
And you can blame it on a difference of design
Or the weight of words that can't be left behind
Lovely though the story goes
It's harder on the heart than in the mind
I'd love to see your face
But you're out among the stars, gone without a trace
My miracle misplaced
There's a void I've come to know, vast as outer space
A change of sound and scenery
Another year to swallow my regrets
To dream of when you needed me
Pretending that I wish I could forget
The way it felt when the pieces seemed to fit
The words we carved in stone, the fires that we lit
Funny how I think about you now
More than I think I can admit
I'd love to see your face
But you're out among the stars, gone without a trace
My miracle misplaced
There's a void I've come to know, vast as outer space
