To the Moon & Back

[Verse 1] 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 to the moon and back If you'll be, if you'll be my baby I've got a ticket for a world Where we belong So would you be my baby? [Verse 2] She can't remember a time When she felt needed If love was red then she was color 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's 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...) [Chorus] I would fly to the moon and back If you'll be, if you'll be my baby I've got a ticket for a world Where we belong So would you be my baby? Hold on Hold on (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) [Verse 3] "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) Just saying [Chorus x2] I would fly to the moon and back If you'll be, if you'll be my baby I've got a ticket for a world Where we belong So would you be my baby?
