This morning feels a little colder
Since the day you slipped beyond my reach
Your laughter echoes like a ghost
A memory I can’t release
I hold this phone like it’s a lifeline
Every ring’s a fragile thread
But silence answers back to me
And fills my heart with dread
Pick up, please, my darling star
Tell me where you are
Do you feel the weight of this divide?
Though your voice is miles away
I will call you every day
Hoping you’ll hear my love, despite the lies
They twist the truth and lock the door
Paint me as the villain in your world
But I’ve never stopped reaching out
My precious, shining girl
Do you know how much I miss you?
Do you know how hard I try?
But no matter how loud I call your name
They drown it in their spite
Pick up, please, my darling star
Tell me where you are
Do you feel the weight of this divide?
Though your voice is miles away
I will call you every day
Hoping you’ll hear my love, despite the lies
I'm sorry for the world I made
For the chaos and the pain
I never meant to break your heart
But I can’t erase the stain
If I could hold you just once more
And see your light again
I’d tell you that you’ll always be
The reason that I stand
Pick up, please, my darling star
Tell me where you are
Do you feel the weight of this divide?
Though your voice is miles away
I will call you every day
Hoping you’ll hear my love, despite the lies
And if you’re scared or feeling lost
I’ll find you no matter the cost
You’re my special starfire, always mine
So when the silence grows too loud
And you’re lost beneath the clouds
Remember, my love for you won’t die
