To the Moon & Back

She's taking her time, making up the reasons

To justify all the hurt inside

Yeah, 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 and

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 said to me)

She's saying

I will fly you 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?

She can't remember a time when she felt needed

If love was red then she was colorblind

All her friends, they've been tried for treason

And crimes that were never defined

She's saying

Life is like a backwards basin

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, yeah

Send a signal that she's hanging all her hopes on a star

(And she said to me)

She's saying

I will fly you 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, hold on

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 said to me)

Oh, yeah

(And she said to me)

I will fly you 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?

I will fly you 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?

Be my baby
