[Verse 1]

We used to think our words were gold

That our binded hearts could withstand cold

We were catching diamonds in the rain

Letting precious water through the drain

[Chorus]

Stars were dancing in their light

A past that we could never right

Oh, they were dancing way up high

[Verse 2]

We built these walls so we could find

Who could prove themselves through the waves of time

But trying to repent before you sin

Is like giving up before you begin

[Chorus]

Stars were dancing in their light

A past that we could never right

Oh, they were dancing way up high

Stars were dancing in their light

A future we will never write

Dirt on our feet was bone dry, it was bone dry

[Bridge]

Thought another goal is all we needed

Taking second chances 'til we bleed

And when all the love had been depleted

We had but no choice to concede

[Chorus]

As the stars were dancing in their light

A past that we could never right

Oh, they were dancing way up high

Stars were dancing in their light

A future we will never write

Dirt on our feet was bone dry, it was bone dry
