To the Sun and Back - TrackTribe

This town was built on miles of hope And I dare you to give one reason to stay And maybe I won't go away So far you only dared me once And I think we know that's not even close enough Not enough for me to stay It costs so much I know But I guess I need to know What it would have felt like to be right But I'm getting tired all over again So hurry up and get here because I'm still waiting... Just like I've always been I'm getting tired of standing around Just sitting here and waiting to be found Same old shit just a different day I'll wait around for one more day But I know that's what I will always say Will this ever be O.K.? I will always worry about you I will always stick up for you

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 I would fly you to the moon and back If you'll be, if you'll be my baby Got a ticket for a world where we belong So would you be my baby? Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh 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) She's saying I would fly you to the moon and back If you'll be, if you'll be my baby Got a ticket for a world where we belong So would you be my baby? 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'll say to him) Just saying I would fly you to the moon and back If you'll be, if you'll be my baby Got a ticket for a world where we belong So would you be my baby?

I could hold out my arms, say, "I love you this much" I could tell you how long I will long for your touch How much and how far would I go to prove The depth and the breadth of my love for you? From here to the moon and back (moon and back) Who else in this world will love you like that? Love everlasting, I promise you that From here to the moon and back (moon and back) From here to the moon and back (moon and back) I want you to know that you can always depend On promises made and a love without end (love without end) No need to wonder how faithful I'll be Now and on into eternity From here to the moon and back (moon and back) Who else in this world is gonna love you like that? Forever and always, I'll be where you're at (be where you're at) From here to the moon and back (moon and back) From here to the moon and back (moon and back) I would blow you a kiss from the star where I sat I would call out your name to echo through the vast (oh) Thank heaven for you and to God, tip my hat From here to the moon and back (oh) And I'll spend forever just proving that fact From here, from here, from here, from here (from here, from here) To the moon and back (moon and back, moon and back) Ooh
