Lyrics

I was the one
 I who could
 Pull in all the stars above
 
 Lay them on your feet
 And I gave you my love
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
 ♪
 You are the one that got me started
 You coulda let me
 Love anyone, but I only wanted you
 So why did it make me cry?
 Why didn't you come get me one last time?
 You'll always know
 Reason why
 We could have had
 The moon and the sky
 You'll always know
 Reason why this love
 Reason why this love
 Ain't gon' let you go
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
 You laid me down, left me for lions
 Long, long time ago
 You left me there dyin'
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
 But you'll never let me go
 You'll always know
 Reason why
 We could have had
 The moon and the sky
 You'll always know
 Reason why this love
 Reason why this love
 Ain't gon' let you go
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
 Jay-Z
 I know we coulda had it all
 I wasn't ready to go steady, no, not at all
 Smoke in mirrors cloudin' my vision, we hit a wall
 Couldn't see the moon and the sky behind the fall
 Pregnant pause
 Damn, your baby tall, whatchu been up to?
 I don't blame you, my doll, yeah, we kinda stallin'
 As God as my witness, time, it was my mistress
 Guess it's in the stars for me to love you from a distance
 Uh, our ship sailed, uh, the wind blows
 The door's always open but our window is closed
 You always thought "What if?" but that'll just drive you crazy
 Baby-girl interrupted, thinkin' 'bout what wasn't
 Thinkin' 'bout "What was it?" Was it somethin' I done?
 Somethin' I could do better although nothin' could be done?
 Sometimes you get what you need, not what you think you want
 So maybe no moon and sky, yet a beautiful son
 Uh
 You'll always know the reason why
 The song you heard will stay on your mind
 It ain't gon' let you go, no
 ♪
 'Cause you have the moon
 ♪
 I have the endless sky
 You'll always know (You have the dreams and I'll always have every star)
 Reason why (Every one of them twinklin')
 We could have had (And they wonder what you thinkin')
 The moon and the sky
 You'll always know
 
 We had the moon and the sky above
 And I gave you my love
 (Ain't gon' let you go)
