To The Moon Lyrics - Singles - Capercaillie

(Verse 1) 

She's taking her time making up the reasons 

To justify all the hurt inside 

Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes 

Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one 

They're saying 

Mama never loved her much 

And daddy never keeps in touch 

That's why she shies away from human affection 

But somewhere in a private place 

She packs her bags for outer space 

And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot 

To come (and she'll say to him) 

She's saying 

(Chorus) 

I would fly you to the moon and back 

If you'll be if you'll be my baby 

Got a ticket for a world where 

we belong 

So would you be my baby 

Ooh-ooh 

(Verse 2) 

She can't remember a time 

When she felt needed 

If love was red then she was colour-blind 

All her friends they've been tried for treason 

And crimes that were never defined 

She's saying 

Love is like a barren place 

And reaching out for human faith is 

Is like a journey I just don't have a map for 

So baby gonna take a dive and push the shift to overdrive 

Send a signal that she's hanging all her hopes on the stars 

(What a pleasant dream) just saying 

(CHORUS x2) 

Mamma never loved her much 

And daddy never keeps in touch 

That's why she shies away from human affection 

But somewhere in a private place 

She packs her bags for outer space 

And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot 

To come (and she'll say to him) 

She's saying 

(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)
