Lyrics

[Couplet 1]
She’s taking her time making up the reasons
to justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows, from the smiles and the look in their eyes
Everyone’s got a theory ‘bout the bitter one
They’re saying, Mama never loved her much and
Daddy never keeps in touch and
that’s why she shies away from human affection
but somewhere in a private place
she packs her bags for outterspace
and now she’s waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
( and she’ll say to him ) she’s saying

[Chorus 1]
I will fly you to the moon and back
if you’ll be, if you’ll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world where we are belong
so would you be my baby

[Couplet 2]
She can’t remember a time, when she felt needed
if love was red then she was colorblind
All her friends, they’d been trialed for treason
In crimes that were never defined
She’s saying, love is like a barren place
reaching out for human faith.
It’s like a journey I just don’t have a map for
so, baby’s gonna take a dive and
we’ll shift to overdrive
send a signal that she’s hanging all her hopes on the stars
( what a pleasantry ) she’s saying

[Chorus 2]
hold on, hold on

[Couplet 3]
(Solo on the first part)
Mama never loved her much and
daddy never keeps in touch
That’s why she shies away from human affection
But somewhere in a private space
she packs her bags for outterspace
and now she’s waiting for the right kind off pilot to come
( And she’ll say to him ) She’s saying.

[Chorus 3] (2x)
