Bell X1 - Rocky Took A Lover lyrics

rate me

He said 'I wanna shine in the eye of Orion

But I drove my soul through the Black Hole!'

She said 'What a wonderful way to wake me

You weren't so nice last night

You're such an asshole when you're drunk'

He said 'At least I'm OK in the mornings'

He said 'The three wise men came a long way

Following that pin hole in the sky

Yeah that one right there'

She said 'I don't believe in any old Jesus

If there was a God, then why is my arse

The perfect height of kicking?'

He said 'I'll shine for you, I'll burn for you

Yea I'll shine for you, that's what I'll do'

He said 'They're like headlights

In the rear view mirror

They're closer that they seem

And from this gutter we're still staring at the stars'

She said 'Would ya go away and shite

Last night all you did was curse those stars

You said they sang to you of hope'

He said 'The sun gives life, and it takes it away

But like all the greats, it'll burn out someday'

She said 'I don't mind, I don't want to get bored

I don't want to end up beached on this shore

I want to be that star'

And then I can shine for you, and then I'll burn for you.

I'll shine for you. That's what I'll do.
