Whirlwind - Constellations Lyrics

I sat there, with the devil on my shoulder
At her side, in a world apart from the truth
Her eyes burned with a fire, a desire she couldn't hide
But a promise in her heart kept her torn inside

I whispered softly, "Don't throw it all away
For a moment that might fade by the light of day"
But she pulled me closer, drowning out the sound
Her heart was screaming, though no words could be found

Her lips, they crashed into mine
A stolen breath, frozen in time
In the shadow of the vows she couldn't erase
We lost ourselves

But love like this can't survive the fall
And I'll be the reason she forgets it all
She leaned in, her heart on the edge of a knife
Torn between her future, and one forbidden night

I told her, "This can't be, don't let it end this way
I'm just a passing storm, and you can stay"
But her hands trembled as they held onto me
In that kiss, I could taste her bittersweet plea

Now, I carry the weight of that night on my soul
Of a love that never was, but still took its toll
She's gone back to the life where I don't belong
But her kiss still haunts me, like a ghost in this song

She said, "I want you with me, but I can't stay
There's a part of me that's breaking as I walk away
You've brought me to life in ways I never knew
But I have to save what I promised to"

Her hands were shaking, and her eyes were torn
"I'll keep you in my heart, though I can't keep you near
In another life, maybe we'd be more than a tear
I won't forget you, and I'll carry this ache
But some things we want, were just meant to forsake"

"You made me happy. I will not forget that. I'm gonna miss you. Farewell"

Now I'm just a shadow she'll leave in the past
A moment we knew was too fragile to last
And though she's gone, I can't let it die
I still feel her lips as the reason we said goodbye
