One Less Star Lyrics by Direct, Killabyte

Monstercat Instinct, Vol. 3

2019

[Intro]

[Verse 1: Matt Van]
I wished upon a star last night and thought of you
But it must've been a dream, 'cause you're not here
I've never been one to believe in fairy tales or fantasy
But perhaps it's time for a change of mind, I guess there's a first for everything

[Chorus: Matt Van]
We fell in love
We had our fun
You always had enough dreams for both of us
I wonder what would come of us
If we could trade these ends for beginnings
I'm drinking from an empty cup
The hardest part of young love was growing up
It's not enough to fill me up
'Cause now there's one less star in the city

(Now there's one less star in the city)
(Now there's one less star in the city)

[Refrain: Matt Van]
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh

[Verse 2: Matt Van]
I saw a shooting star last night and thought of you
But I woke up from a dream, and you're not here

[Refrain: Matt Van]
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh

[Chorus: Matt Van]
We fell in love
We had our fun
You always had enough dreams for both of us
I wonder what will come of us
'Cause now there's one less star in the city

[Drop]

[Refrain: Matt Van]
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
'Cause now there's one less star in the city

[Chorus: Matt Van]
We fell in love
We had our fun
You always had enough dreams for both of us
I wonder what would come of us
If we could trade these ends for beginnings
I'm drinking from an empty cup
The hardest part of young love was growing up
It's not enough to fill me up
'Cause now there's one less star in the city

[Bridge: Matt Van]
I can't keep living without you
But I'll wait, and someday
I'll join you in the stars, but
For now, I can keep thinking about you
'Cause I can't find my way
'Cause now there's one less star in the city

[Outro: Matt Van]
(I can't keep living without you)
(But I'll wait, someday)
(I'll join you in the stars, but)
(For now, I can keep thinking about you)
('Cause I can't find my way)
('Cause now there's one less star in the city)
