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 ´bout the bitter one
they´re saying, "momma 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

I would fly to the moon & 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?

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 like a journey I just don´t have a map for"
so baby´s gonna take a dive and
push the shift to overdrive and
send a signal that she´s hanging all her hopes on the stars
what a pleasant dream

I would fly to the moon & 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.... momma 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

I would fly to the moon & 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?
