Let’s build stars like unicorns – dream
of things we could never afford.
Feel the depth of a love swimming in
emotion, a relationship drifting overboard.

When I’m lonely, let me think of you –
like I’ve got nothing to do, or when
I’m just... feeling too bored.

I’ll be your customer, waiting in line –
eager to buy into your love, even when
the shelves are empty, and the price tag
is pain: that keeps me on edge at your
cornerstone.

But like that first verse… this kind
of love darling, never existed at all.
Just stars... Just unicorns... Just hopes...
Just dreams we both couldn’t afford.

— The End —
