One day it just snowed, i guess
they closed the roads into your heart.
You came home like a dead star
no light left, no loving anymore.
Years ago you sent a postcard,
it’s the one that always made me laugh.
It said „Send for reinforcements
cause theres too much here for me to love“.
What would they say,
What would they say to make you feel O.K.
What would they do,
What would they do to make you feel O.K.
Years ago I read a story
about a man who had a plan.
Tied himself on to a balloon,
yeah, cut the ties and tried to reach the moon.
Rescued by an airline pilot
15,000 feet above the world.
Dragged him down, they wished him luck
they’d hoped that he learned his lesson well.
What would they say,
What would they say to make him feel O.K.
What would they do,
What would they do to make him feel O.K.
Kathy I can still see stars
the same ones that we wished upon.
I know you know your way around,
but I can tell you’re losing ground.
I can see you on the radar,
but you know I could never bring you back.
You cut the ties, you’re floating free yeah, hi and lo and inbetween
