When I found out that each and every one of you were dead Wrote a letter to the universe instead She said, I can put your mind at ease I've got a planet on the line I'd l-l-l-l-l-love to be a man Paintin' pictures to discover foreign lands You put the ache into make believe Out of sight is out of mind Your famous last words, thought they'd never be erased We were swimming on the night before three days With the waves crashing down on me We're not running out of time Run for cover, hide beneath an avalanche Change our name before we even took a chance And when the sky's done cavin' in Would you take me for a ride? The night had a number, number 37 babe Now we're dancin' to the music that we made Your delay means eternal leave Look forever to remind That I-I-I-I-I-I wanna be your man But you won't let me recover who you am Set me free on a gentle breeze Let me carry you beside Wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wanna comprehend The reflection in the mirror in your hand Or the weight of the seven seas Really cut us down to size Baby, don't you know that it is understood That if you take away the sunshine Then you take away the starlight Baby, don't you know that it is understood That if you take away the sunshine Then you take away the starlight, ooh Baby, don't you know that it is understood That if you take away the sunshine Then you take away the starlight, ooh Baby, don't you know that it is understood That if you take away the sunshine Then you take away the starlight, ooh Baby, don't you know that it is understood That if you take away the sunshine Then you take away the starlight, ooh Baby, understood, sunshine, starlight Baby, understood, sunshine, starlight
