"Rocket For The Girl" lyrics

"Rocket For The Girl"

I wrote a love song for the wrong girl
I guess I had to go through hell with her
Just to get to you
People talk bad about what they don't know
People talk bad when they can't see the truth
Like the way my heart goes crazy
When you walk in the room

You are the sad girl who lost her rocket
I had a dream about you
About a year before we fell in love
You lost your drag in the dream behind you
It is all that you can see
Even though it isn't real
It looks so big
But you can't see me

You are my everything, every day
You ruin me for anybody else
You make all the old things new
With the sound of your voice
And the easy way you move
You are my everything, every day
You ruin me in all the right ways
When I break down
You make me feel strong
When I lose my music
You help me find a new song
When I get my magic in a bottle
I will spend it all to heal your world
I will build a rocket for the girl

Someday
So please stop pushing me away
You gotta let go of the pain
Baby, you gotta let go of the way things used to be
Oh
This life gets dark sometimes
Good things can be hard to see
Now I'm good for you
You are perfect for me

You are my everything, every day
You ruin me for anybody else
You make everything seem new
With the sound of your voice
And the easy way you move
You are my everything, every day
You ruin me in all the right ways
When I break down
You make me feel strong
When I lose my music
You help me find a new song
When I get my magic in the bottle
I will spend it all to heal your world
I will build a rocket for the girl
I will build a rocket for the girl
I will build a rocket for the girl

Someday
Someday
