God played a trick on me
Walking up the street to the diner to eat
Expecting nothing but a five dollar feast
She took me by surprise
That pair of bright blue eyes
I caught her glance, I smiled, we said hi
Both headed inside
With shooting stars colliding
With planets all aligning
There' s not much that can be done
You wouldn' t dare deny it
And if you try to fight it
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
I flexed, I smoothed my hair
I watched her sitting there
Asked her if she' d mind if I sat down beside
She said she didn' t, and we talked until nine
And then we said, " good night
Until tomorrow night"
I laid down staring at the ceiling
Life before my eyes
With shooting stars colliding
With planets all aligning
There' s not much that can be done
You wouldn' t dare deny it
And if you try to fight it
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
In this surreality
(You can taste and touch and breathe)
Now it' s my reality
And so one story ends
But another one begins...
I laid down staring at the ceiling
Life before my eyes
With shooting stars colliding
With planets all aligning
There' s not much that can be done
You wouldn' t dare deny it
And if you try to fight it
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s hard to help but see God played a trick on me Walking up the street to the diner to eat Expecting nothing but a five dollar feast She took me by surprise That pair of bright blue eyes I caught her glance, I smiled, we said hi Both headed inside With shooting stars colliding With planets all aligning There' s not much that can be done You wouldn' t dare deny it And if you try to fight it It' s like staring down the sun It' s like staring down the sun I flexed, I smoothed my hair I watched her sitting there Asked her if she' d mind if I sat down beside She said she didn' t, and we talked until nine And then we said, " good night Until tomorrow night" I laid down staring at the ceiling Life before my eyes With shooting stars colliding With planets all aligning There' s not much that can be done You wouldn' t dare deny it And if you try to fight it It' s like staring down the sun It' s like staring down the sun In this surreality (You can taste and touch and breathe) Now it' s my reality And so one story ends But another one begins... I laid down staring at the ceiling Life before my eyes With shooting stars colliding With planets all aligning There' s not much that can be done You wouldn' t dare deny it And if you try to fight it It' s like staring down the sun It' s like staring down the sun It' s like staring down the sun Explain Request ×
