Lasso

“Take me away from here,
take me away from all I fear.”

So you point at the sky,
and you say I, I, I

Threw a lasso trying to catch the sun,
but the rope it came undone,
will you settle for a shooting star?
I’d do anything for you,
build a staircase to the moon,
take a bottle of wine and
watch the world spin round,
around, around, around.

So if we were up there now,
no gravity holding us down,
would that little blue dot
help you see what we’ve got?

I threw a lasso trying to catch the sun,
but the rope it came undone,
will you settle for a shooting star?
I’d do anything for you,
build a staircase to the moon,
take a bottle of wine and
watch the world spin round,
around, around, around.

And I’m wearing your coat.
It’s as cold as ice.
But I watch my star fall and I know
everything will be alright.

So you point at the sky,
and you say I, I, I

Threw a lasso trying to catch the sun,
but the rope it came undone,
will you settle for a shooting star?
I’d do anything for you,
build a staircase to the moon,
take a bottle of wine and
watch the world spin round,
around, around, around.
