Stars and Burnt Bridges

Please, take me home
I don't want to be out here anymore
My eyes are heavy, my heart is too
Everything I’ve been doing, I’ve been doing for you
So, go through the motions one more time
Said I’m worth dollars, but sold me for dimes
Something is between us, and it ain’t good
Don't set us on fire anymore, the way it should
Our love is a distant star
That burned out long ago
Stare into the embers of a burning bridge
Smoke rising into the afterglow
From outside the window it seems so warm inside
Ain’t it funny what a little glass can hide
Inside the frame, another tale unfolds
No bedtime story that you want to be told
Our love is a distant star
That burned out long ago
Stare into the embers of a burning bridge
Smoke rising into the afterglow
Give me a minute; it’s worth your while
Cover up the heartbreak with the blanket of a smile
Whisper sweet, useless nothings in my ear
Pretend they're the words that we need to hear
Our love is a distant star
That burned out long ago
Stare into the embers of a burning bridge
Smoke rising into the afterglow
