I remember when I met you
How the sun disappeared
How the stars were long gone too
But it was too bright
Like you were the sun in the sky
Fallen to earth

I should have known then
How the sun always burns me
Sunscreen doesn't help
Just like our distance and time apart
None of it helped
I didn't know even then

Everything was too bright when I saw you
Like you were the sun fallen to earth
I knew from the first moment
You would become the center of my galaxy
Everything in my world
Would revolve around you

I thought I could touch the sun
And not get burned
I was fresh from another star
That didn't burn as bright as you
He burned me with his cool light
But I swore you wouldn't burn me

Too bright to stand by you
I kept away though I didn't want to
The inner light you gave was more than enough
You lit up every dark place he left
But then you burned me
When you didn't want to be my light.
