Come in close now it's time to tell the story
|
Long ago, and so many years before we
|
Ever were, ever dreamed we even could be
|
There was her and her very first heartbeat
|
|
All alone in a corner of the night sky
|
Spiral bones of a supernova starlight
|
Fell in love with another burning bright
|
She dreamed of a way to ignite she said
|
|
Tonight
|
Come on, come on collide
|
Break me to pieces I
|
I think you're just like heaven
|
Why, come on, come on collide
|
Let's see what a fire feels like
|
I bet it's just like heaven
|
Just like heaven
|
Just like heaven
|
|
Such a shame nowhere near even a near miss
|
Light years away from the hope of being sun-kissed
|
Anchored home in her interstellar sea but
|
Poor lonely Cassiopeia
|
|
So she sighs and she burns with desperation
|
Learns to cry over love of constellations
|
Then a spark from a star shooting too close
|
They both smiled "What a day to explode"
|
She said
|
|
Tonight
|
Come on, come on collide
|
Break me to pieces I
|
I think you're just like heaven
|
Why, come on, come on collide
|
Let's see what a fire feels like
|
I bet it's just like heaven
|
Just like heaven
|
Just like heaven
|
|
Long ago in a sky built before us
|
A supernova grew up to be stardust
