Your silence is a question
to what I couldn`t say
I see it in your tension
I let it slip away
I know I never told you
I should have done it then
I could have tried to hold you
instead I turned and ran
Did you know that I was dying
did you know that I was waiting for my ride
the constellation of Orion
so bright that night
Did you know that I was fading
maybe I was hanging on to find
you`d be there to save me
if I ever fell behind
I know it doesn`t matter
cause I`ll be leaving soon
I`ll try and send you letters
and postcards from the moon
I`ll hear it if you call me
you have to know it`s true
It gets a little lonely
I hope you miss me too
But did you know that I was dying
did you know that I was waiting for my ride
the constellation of Orion
so bright that night
Did you know that I was fading
maybe I was hanging on to find
you`d be there to save me
if I ever fell behind
When the shooting stars hit the city lights
I could tell that we would live forever
you and I
standing outside gazing at the sky
feeling so alive
alive
If you knew that I was dying
if you knew that I was waiting for my ride
still waiting hoping
for you tonight
I`m getting tired of trying
my destination`s glittering up high
The constellation of Orion
is where I`m going to fly
So if you ever miss me
just look up
look up to the sky
