When I look into your eyes

It's like watching the night sky

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love
E
I'm still looking up
D A
And when you're needing your space

To do some navigating

I'll be here patiently waiting

Some even fall to the earth

And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn

And who I am
