Astronomy Songtext
von Thin White Rope

I woke riding on a falling moon
Turns my heart and my pillow blue
Traveled so long that you′re old and new
Traveled so fast I lost my shadow
One of these days will realize
The darkest shadow falls from the clearest skies

You're so silent and your skin so cold
That I jump up saying "Go shadow go"


And you surface from a deep blue sleep
Saying "I′m thirsty and I had a dream"
You say "There's a glass of water on the floor
There's no need for you to leave me anymore."
One of these nights I′ll sell my soul
To sleep in something that doesn′t rock and roll

I woke riding on a falling moon
Turned my heart and my pillow blue
Tried to make peace between the new and old
Tried so hard to leave my shadow
One of these days will realize
The darkest shadow falls from the clearest skies
