"Astronaut (Original Version)" lyrics

"Astronaut (Original Version)"

You and I talked about everything under the sun, and
I'm not sure at what point you figured this out on your own
So go reinvent yourself into a whole other person
But I know you better than anyone you'll ever know

You said that you needed space
Go on then, astronaut
And when you come back down to earth
Bet I'll be the one you call
When you realise there's nothing out there (Ah)
But matter and emptiness (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And you let a good thing go-ooh (Ah)

You could get one of those super-white suits (Ah-ah)
And bounce around how like my gravity isn't holding you (Isn't holding you)
And the cruelest part of it is how you tell me that you love me still (Yeah)
Like I'm supposed to wait here while you're figuring out just how you feel (Oooh)

You said that you needed space
Go on then, astronaut
And when you come back down to earth
Bet I'll be the one you call (Ah)
When you realise there's nothing out there (Ah)
But matter and emptiness (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And you let a good thing go
You let me go
You let me go, yeah

Oh
I hope you find all you need, yeah (I hope you find you need, yeah)
It hurts to know that's not me, 'cause (Ooh, ooh, yeah)

You said that you needed space
Go on then, astronaut (Oh, go on then, astronaut)
And when you come back down to earth
I'll bet I'll be the one you call (You'll call me again)
When you realise there's nothing out there (Ooh; and I'm here)
But matter and emptiness
And you let a good thing go
Oh, yeah

So if you realise there's nothing out there
But matter and emptiness
And you let a good thing go
