Floating ominously above my head
A thousand little stars twinkling in the sky
While looming in my heart
Are the thousand little reasons why I have to say goodbye
What’s happened here is over now
But more is sure to come
Time can’t be rewound
These events cannot be undone
The path we’re headed only travels one way
There’s no chance of turning back
There’s no doubt about it
It’s just a matter of fact
Because you can’t stop the wind from flowing
Using nothing but your hands
Anymore than you can expect fire not to burn
Even if you try and try again
And this is what I mean
This is what I mean when I look to the stars and cry
That looming in my heart
Are these thousand little reasons why I have to say goodbye
