|
Now I know why |
|
you're floating away |
|
like a white balloon |
|
untied today or last night |
|
I like the sounds |
|
you make when you sleep |
|
like you're eating a meal |
|
grinding your teeth or just breathing |
|
Oh my stars |
|
Crying, "Oh my stars!" |
|
Oh my stars |
|
Can't strangle anyone who has light |
|
in their life |
|
Put your mouth here on my belly |
|
Put your fingers in my hair |
|
After mountains there are valleys |
|
We can fall asleep there |
|
Sometimes it's hard |
|
thinking about how the plans we made |
|
won't happen today or tonight |
|
I'm trying real hard |
|
to not make you feel |
|
like you've done something wrong |
|
by leaving the chips open |
|
(I won't wake you up) |
|
Singing, "Oh my stars" |
|
Oh my stars |
|
Oh my stars |
|
Can't strangle all my friends and their wives |
|
and their sons' wives |
|
Put your neck here on your best friend's |
|
Hold your mouth up to the phone |
|
Use the seatbelt like a bookend |
|
We can sleep when we get home |
