[Verse 1]
Hey there, it’s been a couple years since I
Had you on my mind but
Tonight, I saw you in the streaks of a city light
I can’t trust my eyes
My eyes
My eyes

[Chorus]
When did my life dissolve in parts, like dust of stars
Will I Ever See
Your mind has gone so dark, a piece of art

When did my life dissolve in parts, like dust of stars
Will I Ever See
Your mind has gone so dark, a piece of art
Oh, Will I Ever See You Again?
Oh, Will I Ever See You Again?
Oh, Will I Ever See You Again?

[Verse 2]
Hey there, it’s only been a day since I
Thought about our time again
And when I look up I could swear that you’re in the sky
But then I open my eyes
My eyes
My eyes

[Chorus]
When did my life dissolve in parts, like dust of stars
Will I Ever See
Your mind has gone so dark, a piece of art
Oh, Will I Ever See You Again?
Oh, Will I Ever See You Again?
Oh, Will I Ever See You Again?

When did my life dissolve in parts, like dust of stars
Will I Ever See Again?
