My Own Universe

Lyrics

One night I was lookin' high up at the sky
 A shootin' star was fallin' and I didn't know why
 Whenever it rains like this, I think of you
 I am sitting here inside my own universe
 Thinkin' of the memory of you and your purse
 The planets are aligned, but I think ours are askew
 Telephone is ringin'
 I think I'll let it pick up
 My life is one big black hole
 And my planetarium is shut
 Watchin' that horizon, yeah, I see the sun set
 Disappear in water, can it ever forget
 Lately, I've been tired and lazy
 Moonglow on my shoulder tells me
 I'm sitting here inside my own universe
 Spinning 'round the planets while we try to converse
 Meteorites are fallin', and our satellite is broke
 Can we rendezvous? One can only hope
 Oh, I can see the planets fallin'
 Oh, our space is out of whack
 I'm lookin' through that telescope
 I wonder if you're lookin' back
 Repeat six times:
 I'm sitting here inside my own universe
