lyrics

You said you’d come from outer space
You named me the stars outside your place
Beneath a midnight sun we slept for days
When the sun came up, you were years away
Away

So would you still want to put up with me
When you get back from outer space?
Would you still want to put up with me
When you get back from outer space?

Where do you go?
What starry road could I follow?
A million black holes
A desert full froze
Your Sunday clothes
Wonders we have known

But does it really matter to you?
Does it really matter to you?
If you tell me, it’s true
I would spin an earth around you
Around you

Would you still want to put up with me
When you get back from outer space?
Would you still want to put up with me
When you get back from outer space?

Where do you go?
What starry road could I follow?
A million black holes
What starry road should I follow?

I would spin an earth around you
Would you look at me like I was new?
Would you look at me like I was new?
Like I was new

Would you still want to put up with me
When you get back from outer space?
Would you still want to put up with me
When you get back from outer space?

(falsetto overlay)
I feel ready, I feel ready to go
I feel ready, I feel ready to go
To go
