Light from a dead star

He lives his life in a world full of women
And he takes what he wants
from their love
And he throws the rest away

I cling to him and pray
But still he slips away
And now it's just too late
To wish him back again

She won't put up with this life
so she leaves him
And she finds someone else,
falls in love
And she travels far away

I say that it's okay
And swallow all my pain
And now it's just too late
To wish her back again

They left me here on my own
in a nightmare
And I just can't forgive anymore
So I smile and turn away

Don't listen when they say
They wish I could stay
And now it's just too late
To wish me back again
