| The world and the surrounding stars
|
| Might change completely in the space of an hour
|
| But not an eclipse of the sky nor a colliding car
|
| Will turn me back now that I’ve come this far
|
| Not a shotgun blast nor a shooting star
|
| Will bring her down from her stubborn tower
|
| It’s a kind of madness, it’s a kind of sin
|
| To live in the state of mind I’ve been living in
|
| Her face imprinted on my sight
|
| Her voice resounding in my skull at night
|
| If there is a living goddess on Earth
|
| It must be her from the heaven high life
|
| It takes this girl to realize what you’re worth
|
| And I’m worth nothing if she’s worth more than my life
|
| But there’s more to me than simple devotion
|
| I won’t just crawl at her feet and utter a plea
|
| And if she refused I wouldn’t walk into the ocean
|
| Just because my world was left all out at sea
|
| So it was in this cafe when we eventually met
|
| And I wished I had sunglasses and smoked cigarettes
|
| The world and the surrounding stars
|
| They change completely in the space of an hour
|
| When over the table and two cups of tea
|
| She told me she felt the same way about me
|
| And not an eclipse of the sky nor a colliding car
|
| Could have shaken our attention from each other’s face
|
| As we both stepped down from our stubborn towers
|
| We jump into the ignorant heaven that is the lover’s place |
