Bell X1 - Rocky Took A Lover lyrics

He said, "I wanna shine in the eye of Orion

But I drove my soul through the Black Hole"

She said, "What's 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 okay 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"

He said, "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 you go away and shine?

Last night all you did was curse those stars

'Cause 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 wanna get bored

I don't wanna end up beached on this shore

I wanna be that star

I wanna be that star

I wanna be that star

I wanna 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

That's what I'll do

That's what I'll do"
