Starborn from another land Arrive in a blaze and a flash Here to break my heart and play with my head And vanish in the smoke of a puff and a drag Never saw her comin' again 'Til the moment I had given up She looked so familiar I knew it was her So I approached and we fell into a passionate embrace And she whispered "It's okay Love We'll be together one day Just not this one" Felt like we'd known each other since before we were born Or maybe even before our last death I'd spent so many lifetimes preparing for this one Only for her to show up and tell me she wasn't ready And so I left I spent many years alone Waiting for the day When we'd find each other again But I waited and waited 'Til I could wait no more I waited for you And you never came I tried to hold on But I died in vain And now I know it wasn't you I loved But the idea of us When I woke It was my turn And as soon as I arrived I searched the sky for you Hoping to catch a glimpse of your passing light But I never did So I went on living Living a life free from desire It was long But it was a good life And on my deathbed I spoke to the void "Starborn When you return I hope you won't come looking for me For you see I won't be here I'll have gone beyond the stars and into the sun" I've finally found peace But I don't need you I've finally found peace And it's not with you I waited for you And you never came I tried to hold on But I died in vain And now I know it wasn't you I loved But the idea of us But the Idea of us
