When I was young I used to gaze up at the heavens,
Waiting for someone to rescue me,
And I wonder if they'd lay awake in starlight,
Thinking who their soul mate was gonna be,
And the more you try to hold me,
The more it seems I'm pushing you away,
And the more I try to tell you,
The more it seems I don't know what to say.
Yeah e-eh.
Your holding my hand but I'm not holding yours,
I'm making my plans for one,
Your making reservations at a table for two,
But no body else is gonna come.
We used to look into each others eyes forever,
We used to never wanna hang up on the phone,
It used to seem that we were meant to be together,
Now it feels like we were meant to be alone,
And the more you try to hold me,
The more it seems I'm pushing you away,
And the more I try to tell you,
The more it seems I don't know what to say.
He-hey umm.
Your holding my hand but I'm not holding yours,
I'm making my plans for one,
Your making reservations at a table for two,
But nobody else is gonna come.
Your holding my hand but I'm not holding yours,
I'm making my plans for one,
I've left my resignation with a look in your eye,
But no one inside will save you, save you.
I go back to where I used to lay in silence,
In the starlight under twinkling dark night,
And the motorway seems sad and disconnected,
I am aching and I don't understand why,
I am aching and I don't understand why.
