When the Stars Forgot Us
WHEN THE STARS FORGOT US [Intro – Piano / Cello] [Female – softly] Do you remember the night When the stars were still ours? [Verse 1] I found you where the shadows sleep Beneath a sky without a moon Your hands were cold against my skin But somehow I still felt you There was a time before the war When every road led back to you Now every word I never said Is all I have to hold on to [Pre-Chorus] And I don’t know How to say goodbye When every part of me Still hears you alive [Chorus] When the stars forgot us I still remembered your light When the heavens turned away I stayed beside you through the night If tomorrow takes you from me If the darkness calls your name I will carry you forever Where no war can reach again [Verse 2] You smiled as if the world was whole As if the flames were far away You said, “Don’t mourn the life we lost Remember what we made” I tried to hide the tears I had I tried to tell you I was strong But love can break the strongest heart When it knows the time is gone [Pre-Chorus] And I don’t know How to let you go When every breath I take Still needs you close [Chorus] When the stars forgot us I still remembered your light When the heavens turned away I stayed beside you through the night If tomorrow takes you from me If the darkness calls your name I will carry you forever Where no war can reach again [Male Vocal – Soft] Don’t be afraid… [Female Vocal] I’m here. [Male Vocal] The night is almost over… [Female Vocal] Then stay with me. [Male Vocal] I never really left you. [Duet] Then don’t let go. [Bridge – Piano / Strings] [Female] If love is more than flesh and blood Then you will never disappear [Male] If memory can outlive the stars Then I will always find you here [Female] And if the world forgets our names… [Male] Let the silence remember… [Both] We were alive. [Guitar Solo] [Quiet Verse – Piano Only] [Female] The room is cold The morning came I reached for you… But you’re not there I closed my eyes And heard your voice One final time… “Don’t stop.” [Orchestral Build] [Choir – softly] Don’t stop… Don’t stop… [Final Chorus – Full Orchestra] When the stars forgot us I still remembered your light When the heavens turned away You were the reason I survived And if tomorrow takes you from me I will carry you through time Every scar will tell your story Every heartbeat will be mine [Final Chorus – Massive Duet] When the stars forget our names Let the universe erase Every kingdom, every throne Every monument we made I will find you in the silence I will find you in the rain And beyond the final darkness We will meet again [Final Vocal] [Female – sustained] We will… meet… again… [Outro – Piano / Cello] [Whisper] When the stars forgot us… I remembered you. [Silence]
