To The Moon And Back |
(Savage Garden, 1997) |
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 about the bitter one They're saying 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 place She packs her bags for outer space And now she's waiting for The right kind of pilot to come And she'll say to him She's saying Chorus: I would 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 belong So, would you be my baby? She can't remember a time when she felt needed If love was red then she was colour-blind All her friends they've been tried for treason And crimes that were never defined She's saying Love is like a barren place And reaching out for human faith is Is like a journey I just don't have a map for So baby gonna take a dive and push the shift to overdrive Send a signal that she's hanging all her hopes on the stars What a pleasant dream Just saying Mamma never loved her much And daddy never keeps in touch That's why she shies away from human affection But somewhere in a private place She packs her bags for outer space And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come And she'll say to him She's saying Chorus |
