Astronauts lyrics

[Verse 1]

Let's meet up far away

Where astronauts and gravity

Have opened up the atmosphere

We'll be so safe up here

Navigating the space, we'll create our own star

And I'll name it after you

We'll be so calm up there, we'll fly around with the quiet air

The sun will bring us 'round again, inhaling and orbiting

Our great planet will fit on the tip of your thumb

You'll say I finally see how time stops

And everything that hurts us drops off

[Chorus]

I'll be what you want when everything is gone

Let the world disappear, there are places up here we can hide

We'll be safe way up high

Somewhere only we can find

[Verse 2]

I know it's safe from being called out or evaluated

And people change on a whim, so cue the violence

Let's go rescue a planet that's been thrown away

You'll name it after me

Cause after all we're only one triumphant bang away

From resting in infinity or darkness or some brighter place

Let's not waste one more second on caring about

Trying to figure out what looks right

Cause that can't take away that you're mine

[Chorus]

I'll be what you want when everything is gone

Let the world disappear, there are places up here we can hide

We'll be safe way up high

Somewhere only we can find

I'll be what you want when everything is gone

Let the world disappear, there are places up here we can hide

We'll be safe way up high

Somewhere only we can find

[Bridge]

My, suddenly the stars are flashlights

The universe will make your eyes shine

Can't you feel away that time stops?

Everything that hurts drops off

[Chorus]

Now I'll be what you want when everything is gone

Let the world disappear, there are places up here we can hide

We'll be safe way up high

Somewhere only we can find

I'll be what you want when everything is gone

Let the world disappear, there are places up here we can hide

We'll be safe way up high

Somewhere only we can find
