I watched the city fade in amber glass, Your hand tracing shapes we forgot to name, The air was still... like it waited to learn What we’d become. Memories flickered in slow motion, I tried to catch what slipped between us, But every breath drew a little more space, Every word, a quiet rewind. You smiled like it was the first time again, And I almost believed the lie. Halfway to the stars, I lose the ground beneath, But I don’t fall, I float inside your light, Ah-ah, ooh-ah... Just halfway to the stars. You said the glow never stays for long, I said maybe it’s meant to fade. Still, I kept chasing its edge, Like warmth could outlast the day. Every glance pulled another thread loose, Until we were only light and noise. Halfway to the stars, The world turns slow again, And I don’t run, I stay inside your light, Ah-ah, ooh-ah... Halfway to the stars. Maybe we never touched the sky, Maybe we only learned how to glow. Halfway to the stars, We fade but never quite gone, Ah-ah, ooh-ah... Halfway to the stars... Ah-ah, ooh-ahaaaaaaahaaahaha... Ah-ah, ooh-ahaaaaaaahaaahaha... Halfway to the stars.
