Take me back to the start of it all
So I don't waste my emotions
I don't have to fall for a friend
Who was playing pretend in the end
It was just another fling
Didn't mean a thing, but he never say that to me
Told me I was the one, two halves of a whole
He was my moon, I was his sun
I was stupid to think that he'd changed his old ways
'Cause the moon has different phases
But it always stays the same
You took all my memories and hid them in the stars
Now every time I look up, it's a reminder of what was ours
Like listenin' to Prince's Purple Rain
Listenin' alone doesn't feel the same
But that's okay
'Cause stars fade away
♪
At the time I thought it was fun
For you to string me along, it didn't feel so wrong
To have to sit by my phone all alone and get your tone
Every time I would talk, you would just stare at the clock
Didn't care what I was sayin' always in a rush
I knew this was true but you still made me blush
I was stupid to think that he'd changed his old ways
'Cause the moon has different phases
But it always stays the same
You took all my memories and hid them in the stars
Now every time I look up it's a reminder of what was ours
Like listenin' to Prince's Purple Rain
Listenin' alone doesn't feel the same
But that's okay
'Cause stars fade away
I fell for your silver skin
You dimply, crater grin
And I wanted you to like my way
But I knew you wouldn't stay
'Cause gravity pulls feelings astray, but that's okay
'Cause stars fade away
(Stars fade away)
Away (stars fade away)
Away (stars fade away)
Away (stars fade away)
Like listenin' to Prince's Purple Rain
Listenin' alone doesn't feel the same
But that's okay
'Cause stars fade away
