Starry-Eyed Hope

Space Boy Space Boy
rocketing across the sky
burned to dust
in effort to defy

Space Girl Space Girl
waiting patiently
flew into the wind
absent mindedly

Space Boy Space Boy
her song approaches you
drifting free and careless
There is nothing left to do

Space Girl Space Girl
do you know he's on his way?
tripping, tumbling, free wheeling
to take you where you'll stay

Space Boy Space Boy
hid behind the moon
for his home to come
ready far too soon

Space Girl Space Girl
held by the phone
everyday expecting
the call to take her home

You two, all alone
looking for a sign,
cowering in hope behind doubt,
it's getting close to time

rest assured Darlings
your world wont end
gather up all your courage
hold your breath, press send

Space Boy, Space Girl
don't forget to exhale
they will need you alive
to tell them your tale

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Space Boy Space Boy
you are ready now
the stars shine for you
without a clue how

Space Girl Space Girl
stand up tall
the heavens spur you on
they wont let you fall

Space Boy Space Boy
It's all in your hands
you're bound to find it
in one of these lands

Space Girl Space Girl
lift up your face
get yourself together
you'll have to set the pace

Space Boy, Space Girl
all eyes will be on you
because there is something
special about you two

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sun always rises in the morning
the sun always sets up the moon
stars flame from billions of miles away
the night ignites a passion in this room

Float above this tired old world
renew one another in an embrace
remove the blocks holding you back
give her something to carry in her vase

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Space Boy Space Boy
let go of your fear
there's no reason to hold back
your chance is right here

Space Girl Space girl
let yourself believe
even if you've been stuck
you'll get a reason to leave

Space Boy get ready to fly
Space Girl spread your wings
Space Boy, you'll have to try
Forward, through, past flaming rings

Space Girl be strong
Space Boy keep heart
Space Girl keep it going
Make it worth the start

When you reach the finish line
be proud of what you have done
grateful for the hardships
of making it through with "the one"

Then there will be a celebration
an exciting rambunctious affair
lift a glass, give a shout
after all your hard work, you made it there

So Space Boy Space Boy
don't give up hoping
'cause Space Girl Space Girl
is sending all her loving

And Space Girl Space Girl
don't quit just yet
on this Space Boy Space Boy
soon you will have met
