I watched the stars light up your lonely night
I held your scars when you were lost inside
I tried to be the light you’re waiting for
Quietly loving, hiding all my sore
You need a perfect, flawless kind of love
Pure and bright, never fall apart
But I’m just someone who’s broken and soft
Not the saint you’re dreaming of
I can’t be your angel, flying high for you
Can’t wear the white wings you want me to
I loved you gentle, I loved you true
But I’m not the heaven waiting for you
I can’t be your angel, no matter how I try
My fragile heart can’t reach your sky
I stepped back slow to set your world at ease
No more my shadow on your memories
I still adore you in my silent way
But some love’s meant to fade and stay
No wings to hold you
Just a soul who loved you true
