lyrics

can you teach me
to be weightless and fancy
how to make love naively
on the planets you have seen

I'm done waiting
and light years are covering
my face in star dust
from gazing at the sky

~
dear madame, please
--- shoot me to the moon
like a canon ball
and hear me fall
two hundred thousand miles from home

and you, you will
catch me out in space
daddy loves an astronaut
daddy's gone for good
~

I fiercely await you
my kisses, they could pierce you
like comets leave craters
on the surface of your skin

and in our bed room
the big bang still echoes
the windows are shaking
from many moons ago
