I wake up gasping, air stolen
Like your heart from mine
Maggie singing for the pups
But all I can dream of is you
Drowning as you wished for me?
Long lost feeling of the dance and Debonairs
Like there is no one for me in the world
Haughty and mean and I know you’re lying
Too hard, too showy, I know you’re trying
Maybe we are all wrong, but it is all right
Bookends in the long night
Save each other this time for real
I don’t want to go back to long lost dances
Before I could even dream of a woman like you
My one shining star leading me on
Lost now in the cold night air
Forever? It is a long time without us.

I’m always a sucker for the bittersweet feel of reminiscing the good times and mourning memories that never had the chance to be lived. Your wording with “My one shining star leading me on/lost now in the cold night air” is just fantastic. It really does well in representing what it feels like to live for something that is out of your reach.
