lyrics

It wasn't long ago
That you shone like a brilliant star
On a clear bright night
You'd outshine all others by far
Full of mystery it seemed you held
The knowledge of the universe

But all that was yesterday
And now I find myself asking

How far is the journey
From here to a star
How far is the journey
To a slowly fading star

How far is the journey
From here to a star
How far is the journey

Because I just can't seem to reach you
Reach you, anymore

Funny looking back
It seemed you had it all under control
And no one seemed to know
You kept your pain untold
How hard it must have been
To keep such a brave face in between

Surely that was yesterday
And you must also be asking

How far is the journey
From here to a star
How far is the journey
To a slowly fading star

How far is the journey
From here to a star
How far is the journey

Because I just can't seem to reach you
Reach you, anymore

And it makes you wonder if we can ever
Truly get close to each other
I thought I knew you well
Yet you, you didn't even know yourself

How far is the journey
Because I just can't seem to reach you
Reach you, anymore
