here I am confessing
that you’re lost to me now
I’m on the train telling strangers about you
and how you’re still looking fine
how you eased my worried mind
with long summers and wine
yeah you saved me

but sometimes the stars seem closer than they should
like the more I knew the less I understood
and the further that you got from me
the more I felt like I could see
and the more I wondered if I should trust the stars
‘cause sometimes the stars

here I am obsessing
that I lost you somehow
on that train full of strangers and you
every stop looked the same
all those faces without names
they all drifted away
is that when you left me?

‘cause sometimes the stars seem closer than they should
like the more I knew the less I understood
and the further that you got from me
the more I felt like I could see
and the more I wondered if I should trust the stars
‘cause sometimes the stars

sometimes the stars
sometimes the stars
