Beneath the stars we both pretend
It's our hearts we strive to mend
No we're not close but close enough
All we have is surrogate love
I am just a placeholder to you
And I guess you're just one for me too
It was kind of a perfect night
It may be wrong but felt so right
You were gone before sunrise
'Cause we don't exist in daylight
'Cause I'm just a placeholder to you
And I guess you're just one for me too
We find our escape in this charade
I know it's late but I want you to stay
There's harmony when we're together
Yet our frequencies are not aligned
Maybe in different times in different lives
We could've had a chance to thrive
But I'm just a placeholder to you
And I guess you're just one for me too
We find our escape in this charade
I know it's late but I want you to stay
I want you to stay
