I wanted it so much
That I was willing to compromise it
Giving it all, taking it all
With nothing to show for
Just mistakes
You, a dream
My life that might have been
A ghost to my own needs
A victim to a scream
But you were never mine
Just a falling star
Ever so bright
In a cold and lonely night
Never ever been mine
A drowning nightfall
Fading into the dark
That I was willing to compromise it
Giving it all, taking it all
With nothing to show for
Just mistakes
You, a dream
My life that might have been
A ghost to my own needs
A victim to a scream
But you were never mine
Just a falling star
Ever so bright
In a cold and lonely night
Never ever been mine
A drowning nightfall
Fading into the dark
