lyrics

Circling our lovely star is a rainbow, you see
I used to pretend that it represented you circling me
‘Cause secrets we shared made a bond nothing earthly could break
And that’s why this heart was so hurt when you turned me away

But I won’t ask you to explain yourself anymore
It’s not fair for me to hold you to who you were before
Maybe it’s over and done and I’m finally free,
and that ring around the sun is not meant for me, mm.

Circling your lovely head is a halo, I think
So I’m always surprised when you lie or you’re hurtful to me
Maybe it’s my expectations are making me sad
But no one before you had any power quite like you had

So I won’t ask you to explain yourself anymore
It’s not kind of me to hold you to who you were before.
Maybe it’s over and done and I’m setting you free,
and that ring around the sun is not meant for me mm.

Seeing you, I’ll smile. Talk to me, I’ll laugh, comment on the nice weather that we have
Nothing coming close to the way we were. Maybe I should burn every letter I
wrote to get it out. Didn’t want to shout, but it hurts to keep words inside my mouth.
Still you’ll never know, I can never tell. Ain’t it sad someone you once knew so well
walks in front of you, nothing you can do? Nothing you can say. You just stand and stay
frozen in your head. Everything you said to them years ago buried in the snow.

Everything you said (8x)
Everything you said...
