brntjc - paper stars Lyrics

Looking
Back at
All that we did have
I know what wasn't right
I was too
Frightened
By all the signs to
Even glimpse at the sights

But I found beneath my desk
The gift you gave before you left
It got wrinkled and has some dust
But I can't let go of

A dozen little handmade paper stars
With a letter written from the heart
You spilled your guts between the lines
And I realize
I never should've been so hesitant
Maybe we'd have had a chance back then
That night we said goodbye, I
Didn't think it'd be
The last time

Upset, regret
Our last conversation
Replays inside my head

And I know, and I know, and I know
I should've tried to
Let you know, let you know, let you know
But it's so complicated
Cause all my thoughts got in the way of something that could've been great
Now what am I supposed to say

A dozen little handmade paper stars
With a letter written from the heart
You spilled your guts between the lines
And I realize
I never should've been so hesitant
Maybe we'd have had a chance back then
That night we said goodbye, I
Didn't think it'd be
The last time

Let's meet again
I have something
I wanna give

A dozen little handmade paper stars
With a letter written from the heart
In the form of a little song I wrote
And you'll know
I always end up missing the moment
Cause I want it all to be perfect
This time we'll say goodbye, I
Won't let it be the last time
