She's taking her time making up the reasons, To justify all the hurt inside, Guess she knows, From the smile and the look in her eyes, Everyone's got a theory 'bout 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 bag 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 I would fly to the moon and back, If you'll be, if you'll be my baby. Got a ticket for a world where we'd belong, So would you be my baby? She can't remember a time, When she felt needed, If love was red then she was color blind, All her friends, They had 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, I would fly to the moon and back, If you'll be, if you'll be my baby. Got a ticket for a world where we'd belong, So would you be my baby? 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 bag for outer space, And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come... (And she'll say to him) Just saying, I would fly 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? I would fly to the moon and back, If you'll be, if you'll be my baby. Got a ticket for a world where we'd belong, So would you be my baby? |
