| When it hits me what she’s gone
|
| I think I’ll run for president
|
| Get my face put on the million dollar bill
|
| So when these rich men that she wants
|
| Show her ways they can take care of her
|
| I’ll have found a way to be there with her still
|
| When it hits me that she’s gone
|
| I think I’ll be an astronaut
|
| Make the moon my home
|
| And leave the earth behind
|
| So when she steps out into the night
|
| And finds the light that makes her prettiest
|
| She’ll be facing me every time she shines
|
| When it hits me that she’s left me alone
|
| When I finally move on with my life
|
| Her goodbye written into stone
|
| And her shadow grown into a night
|
| When it hits me that she’s gone
|
| I think I’ll be a movie star
|
| Play the finest men the world has ever seen
|
| So when these lovers that she’s found
|
| Show her ways they learned to talk to her
|
| Behind each perfect word there’ll be a little bit of me |
