Downhearted Songtext

Downhearted Songtext
Like Icarus we shot for the sun
Earth′s pretty small from up here you know
And God wasn't there to catch our fall
My hubris would come to destroy us once for all
Like Orpheus and Eurydice
We ended tragically and now you′re gone
And as I looked back down to see you
All I could do was look on
I've been feeling so lonely
Up on the moon staring into our blue world
A million miles apart
And all I wanted was to be your girl (Your boy, your girl, your boy)
I miss you now that we're apart
And I′d still give you the world
But all that we were and could be
Was lost in the great vast cosmic swirl
I′ve been downhearted baby
What happened's kinda hazy
But my eyes started to wet
Ever since the day you left
Was there a misunderstanding
Or was I too demanding
The only thing that I regret
Ever since the day we met
Ever since the day you left
Earth′s pretty small from up here you know
And God wasn't there to catch our fall
My hubris would come to destroy us once for all
Like Orpheus and Eurydice
We ended tragically and now you′re gone
And as I looked back down to see you
All I could do was look on
I've been feeling so lonely
Up on the moon staring into our blue world
A million miles apart
And all I wanted was to be your girl (Your boy, your girl, your boy)
I miss you now that we're apart
And I′d still give you the world
But all that we were and could be
Was lost in the great vast cosmic swirl
I′ve been downhearted baby
What happened's kinda hazy
But my eyes started to wet
Ever since the day you left
Was there a misunderstanding
Or was I too demanding
The only thing that I regret
Ever since the day we met
Ever since the day you left
