Feels like I'm staring
Down the wrong end of a telescope
Watching your figure disappear
Into the atmosphere
I don't know
What I'm supposed to do here
Beg you to stay or watch you go
Both feel like I'm damned if I do
Are the planets out of line?
Did we jump out of time?
Are there answers in the stars
Explaining how we got where we are?
Because it felt like fate
Not some careless mistake
The way we waltzed into each others' lives
But now we're dividing up our things
I beg for some kind of sign
I pray to gods I've estranged
Everything feels just left of right
Must be love in retrograde
Love in retrograde
Love in retrograde
So I took my first steps
In a brave new world without you
Marked my path with petals
Of forget-me-nots
I feel so weightless
Without your arms around my waist
I feel your absence
In my gravity
Did I misread the cards?
Was this always the cost?
Was it always bound to be
Our bearing to be torn apart?
Cause it felt like fate
Not some careless mistake
The way we waltzed into each others' lives
But now we're dividing up our things
I beg for some kind of sign
I pray to gods I've estranged
Everything feels just left of right
Must be love in retrograde
Love in retrograde
Love in retrograde
Do you think they'd believe me?
If I told them of
The mythology of you & me?
Sounds like something I made up now
But it was an age of golden days
Cause it felt like fate
Not some careless mistake
The way we waltzed into each others' lives
But now we're dividing up our things
I beg for some kind of sign
I pray to gods I've estranged
Everything feels just left of right
Must be love in retrograde
Love in retrograde
Love in retrograde
