Best friends from the beginning we were going to rule the world
We were together through thick and thin you were my best friend and my girl
You had to take your dream job and go live in the big city
You couldn't get there fast enough this small town couldn't keep you
I look into the night time sky
And gaze at the stars above me
I think of you so far away
And I'm hoping that you see what I see
You barely said goodbye to me those bright lights had your attention
You hopped a plane that very day and said I'll see you when I see you
You've been gone so many months now thanks for dropping me a line
Life goes on in our small town I guess I'm doing fine
I look into the night time sky
And gaze at the stars above me
I think of you so far away
And I'm hoping that you see what I see
I'm trying to let go of what I thought would be our future
I didn't plan for you to leave it was all my hallucination
I know my way seems desperate but this is all I ever dreamed for
I'll be here I always will I haven't given up on you yet
I look into the night time sky
And gaze at the stars above me
I think of you so far away
And I'm hoping that you see what I see
I'll always hope that you'll want more
