Rocky Took A Lover Lyrics - Bell X1

He said 'I wanna shine in the eye of Orion 

But I drove my soul through the Black Hole!' 

She said 'What 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 OK 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 

Yea 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 ya go away and shite 

Last night all you did was curse those stars 

You said 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 want to get bored 

I don't want to end up beached on this shore 

I want to be that star' 

And then I'll shine for you. Then I'll burn for you. 

Then I can shine for you. That's what I'll do.
