Chloe Ward - Astronaut Lyrics

Astronaut
You've got nothing to lose
Or to come home to
Afterthought
That's all I was to you
But my love was true
You were the center
Of my universe
Now you're just
Another man on the moon
You built your whole life
On being built to leave
I should've known that
You were never mine to keep
Meant for the sky
You needed space I couldn't give
Got too hard to breathe
Down here where there's oxygen
It's not enough to reach for the stars
You want to be where they are
Astronaut
You've got nothing to lose
Or to come home to
Afterthought
That's all I was to you
But my love was true
You were the center
Of my universe
Now you're just
Another man on the moon
Does it get lonely
Out there chasing the sun
As far as I know
What goes up still comes down
Meant for the sky
And I was some kind of gravity
Kid with the dreams
I wanted your reality
If I could've reached the stars
I would be where you are
You sent my world into orbit
I'd love you and lose you for it
Destined for the dust
Connecting the dots
Like constellations
To realize now I was never part of the dream
You were a flight risk
I was a risk for falling
Sorry you couldn't afford it
Yeah the mission couldn't be aborted
So you sacrificed me for it
All I did was adore it
Astronaut
You've got nothing to lose
Or to come home to
Afterthought
That's all I was to you
But my love was true
You were the center
Of my universe
Now you're just
Another man on the moon
