loose strings

Looking up at the late night sky again, and wondering
Is it dark so we can't see?
Wish that I could count all the stars, glittering silently
Just to make sure they don't leave
Now I can't look away
From that smile on your face
And how the light shines across your eyes, Oh I
Wish you hadn't crossed my mind
I'm sure that I'll move on quickly this time, this time

I hate my own judgement 'cause all that it does is tell me lies
Loose strings hang from my lips 'cause I can't find the words for goodbye
And at the end of the day
I want you to stay
I need you to promise you won't go away, but I
Can't read what's hiding inside your mind

Staying up to watch the sunrise again, and wondering
Where do stars go when they leave?
Know that they'll come back in the night, shimmering endlessly
Keeping me from every falling asleep
Now I can't (now I can't)
Look away (look away)
From that smile on your face
And how the light shines across your eyes
Do I ever cross your mind?
Are the stars keeping you up at night
Am I wrong to think that yours and mine align?

I hate my own judgement 'cause all that it does is tell me lies (ooh)
Loose strings hang from my lips 'cause I can't find the words for goodbye
And at the end of the day
I want you to stay
I need you to promise you won't go away, but I
Can't read what's hiding inside your mind

Hate my judgement
All it does is tell me lies
All the time
Loose strings hanging
From the words I never said
Never confessed to the crime
Hate my judgement
All it does is tell me lies
All the time
Loose strings hanging (at the end of the day)
From the words I (I want you to stay)
Never said (stay)
