Hold On to Your Stars

"Don't be so modest, you're not that great"
That's what a friend of mine once simply said
It took me a while to find out he's right
You aren't what you seem to be
Not what it seemed to me

You jump around from branch to bough too far
To catch the fruit and leaves off trees
I try to take a glimpse of you out there
It's a distant and such careful view

I hold you in my heart and I hold on to your stars
I hold you in my hand and I hold on to my scars

I thought I was able with you before me
To see beyond shadows and high chestnut trees
I waited for autumn, the leaves they stayed on
When you started to hide and you started to fight

And you jump around from branch to bough too far
To catch the fruit and leaves off trees
I try to take a glimpse of you out there
It's a distant and such careful view

I hold you in my heart and I hold on to your stars
I hold you in my hand and I hold on to my scars
I hold you in my heart and I hold on to your stars
I hold you in my hand and I hold on to my scars

You went away, you went away
It wasn't meant for you to stay
You went away, you went away
Soon it will be yesterday

I hold you in my heart and I hold on to your stars
I hold you in my hand and I hold on to my scars
I hold you in my heart and I hold on to your stars
I hold you in my hand and I hold on to my scars
