I'm looking for a reason why I see no shooting stars tonight

Just a sign that everything's alright to quiet me, to quiet me

Maybe all I hoped was wrong maybe all I dreamed is gone

Maybe I was stupid all along for trying it, for trying it

But I believed in what you said

I trusted in your summer

Now the leaves are turning red

And soon they'll all be coming down

How can I go on if hope is what keeps me alive?

And I'm so uncertain

It seems the more I look for you the more I fail to find the truth

Maybe I'm affecting what I view with heavy veils and fairytales

Maybe my research was sound but maybe I just fooled around

All flags and footprints but nothing further down to find you, to find you

But I believed in what you said

I trusted in your summer

Now the leaves are turning red

And soon they'll all be coming down

How can I go on if hope is what keeps me alive?

And I'm so uncertain

I guess I learned the hard way or did I waste my time?

I never met you half way but I crossed that line


[Guitar Solo]

And I believed in what you said

I trusted in your summer

Now the leaves are turning red

And soon they'll all be coming down

How can I go on if hope is what keeps me alive?

Maybe someday I'll know why
