I stand alone in the dark
Music pounding,
Strangers celebrating,
Everyone happy
But all I can think about is my home
The laughs, the struggles
And you
I miss you
They tell me that you've moved on
I refuse to believe it
But after hearing that lie so often I'm starting to believe it.

I gaze at the stars
Wishing that you're staring at them too
But you're in bed
Fast asleep like a toddler
And I think "she's lying, she don't love you"
The night dew soak into my skin
And the alcohol evaporates from my brain
I turn East
"She loves me"
I love you too I whispered,
I love you too.
