Orion

Your silence is a question
To what I couldn't say
I see it in your tension
(I wanna kiss you but) I let it slip away
I know I never told you
I should've done it then
I could have tried to hold you ('cause I needed you)
Instead I turned and ran

Did you know that I was dying (Did you know? Did you know?)
Did you know that I was waiting for my ride?
The constellation of Orion (Did you know? Did you know? Did you know?)
So bright that night
But did you know that I was fading (fading, fading, fading)
Maybe I was hanging on to find
You'd be there to save me (You'd be there, you'd be there, you'd be there)
If I ever fell behind
(Don't wanna talk about it, don't wanna think about it)
If I ever fell behind

It doesn't really matter (I'm running out of time)
'Cause I'll be going soon
I'll try and send you letters (I'll write you poetry)
And postcards from the moon
I'll hear it if you call me
You have to know it's true
It gets a little lonely
I hope you miss me too

But did you know that I was dying
Did you know that I was waiting for my ride?
The constellation of Orion (Did you know? Did you know? Did you know?)
So bright that night
Did you know that I was fading
Maybe I was hanging on to find
You'd be there to save me (You'd be there, you'd be there, you'd be there)
If I ever fell behind

When the shooting stars hit the city lights
I could tell that we would live forever
You and I
Standing outside, gazing at the sky;
Feeling so alive
Alive...

(Don't wanna think about it)
(Don't wanna talk about it)
(I've got to leave this one behind and I can't do without it.)

If you knew that I was dying
If you knew that I was waiting for my ride
Still waiting, hoping
For you tonight
I'm getting tired of trying
My destination's glittering up high
The constellation of Orion
Is where I'm going to fly (into the dark, dark, dark)
So if you ever miss me
Just look up (If I ever fell behind)
Look up to the sky
