Verse:
A G
Fixated on a color / I tried I not to move
A G
And though the room was spinning / I never felt confused
Bm A
I knew of my shortcomings / the day it made the news
Bm A
From the balcony of my hotel / God gave the salute
G

Verse
A G
I was followed by a spaceship / I was taken by surprise
A G
Aware that you would come back / when I saw you in the sky
Bm A
And I made a reservation / to be seated at your side.
Bm A
Sew it in my tongue / so I can taste the ride
G

Verse
A G
You bare the atmosphere / and I'll be alive
A G
Replacing every star that fell / when you tore out the sky
Bm A
And you should have given warning / when turning on your side
Bm A
My eyes get dilated / when you call me in my mind
Bm A
I'll have no one to talk to / if I am left behind.
