Are We Looking At the Same Stars Tonight

Standing alone in the middle of nowhere. Look up and pray for an answer. What happened? One minute you were there The next minute I am pulling my hair out On my knees I am screaming in pain. Trying to figure out where things went wrong. I draw your name in the stars But before I’m done your name is gone. Is this the end? Will we see each other again? How could my heart be torn in two? All I want is to be with you. Why can’t you see that we were meant to be? Opposites attract and we have proven that Why won’t you just come back? I can’t take the pain.. My flame is out and you're nowhere to be found. Looking at the stars I wonder where you are. Are you looking at the same stars I am looking at?
