Red Planet Songtext
von Alvvays

It′s been almost twenty years
On the red planet
A place where there are no tears
It is just water floating
No, they're not quite emoting

I dream of the other days
Of the times I held you
Left in an autumn blaze
Now I idle in bubbles
Just collecting the rubble

Well, I waited for you out here
But that was just delusional
And I′ve painted all these pictures
Of Earth, but that's unusual
Unusual to you


Met at a seminar
Shared the same table
Brushed by you at the bar
You didn't match your description
And soon became my prescription

I think of the junipers
In the spring growing
Far more than Jupiter
It doesn′t draw a reaction
A temporary distraction

And I′ve waited for you out here
But that may be delusional
And I've painted all these pictures
Of Earth, but that′s unusual
Unusual to you
Unusual, unusual, unusual to you

And I waited for forever
And that was just delusional
So I painted all these pictures
Of Earth, but that's unusual
Unusual, unusual, unusual to you
