(Verse 1)
You're a shadow dancing close, but always out of reach,
A whispered melody, a lesson life won't teach.
I chase your ghost, through nights too long to bear,
In dreams you're mine, awake, you're never there.
(Pre-Chorus)
My heart is running circles,
A thousand ways to nowhere,
Caught inside your orbit,
Breathing empty air.
(Chorus)
I'm longing for your love, a fire I can't hold,
Burning slow, burning bright, burning cold.
Forbidden stars in skies above,
I'm lost in longing for a love I'll never touch.
(Verse 2)
Every stolen glance, every silent sigh,
Secret wars inside me, truths I can't deny.
In crowded rooms, it's you I'm searching for,
Locked outside your heart, always at your door.
(Pre-Chorus)
My heart is writing stories,
That fate won't ever tell,
In love with your shadow,
Under your spell.
(Chorus)
I'm longing for your love, a fire I can't hold,
Burning slow, burning bright, burning cold.
Forbidden stars in skies above,
I'm lost in longing for a love I'll never touch.
(Bridge)
And maybe someday I'll set you free,
Or maybe this ache is my poetry,
Bound to you in dreams that cannot be,
Forever wanting what I can't see.
(Outro)
Still longing for your love, forever out of touch,
Holding on, letting go, it hurts too much.
A whispered wish to skies above,
Always longing for a love I cannot have.
