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 shy's away from human affection
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bag 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, Now we're flying to the moon and back
If you'll be, if you'll be my baby (be my baby)
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
So will you be my baby (be my baby)

Mmm Mmm

She can't remember a time
When she felt needed
If love was red then she was colour blind
All her friends
Well they've been trailed for treason
And crimes that were never defined

She's saying, well love is like a baron place
And reaching out for human faith is,
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for
So baby gonna take a dive
And push shift to overdrive
And send a signal that she's hanging all her hopes on the stars

(What a pleasant dream)
Just saying, Now we're flying to the moon and back
If you'll be, if you'll be my baby (be my baby)
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
So will you'll be my baby (be my baby)

(Hold on, hold on)

*** Instrumental ****

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
(somewhere in a private place)
She packs her bag for outer space
(packs her bag for outer space)
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come

(And she'll say to him)
Just saying, Now we're flying to the moon and back
If you'll be, if you'll be my baby (be my baby)
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
So will you be my baby (be my baby)
Now we're flying to the moon and back
If you'll be, if you'll be my baby (be my baby)
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
So will you be my baby, yeh

Ooh, Ooh........
