Neptune 04:19
I’ll make my home where the wind blows Faster than the eye can follow Outside it’s two hundred degrees below You’ll catch your death upon the surface But at her core it’s like a furnace Burning on out in the great unknown I once caught a glimpse but it faded from view Lost amid the street lamps and the glare of the moon Still I try to locate her with maximum zoom And if you swing back around, girl I’ve waited for you Where skies of blue go on forever We’ll find a way to be together I need your touch like an oxygen flow I guess you got just what you came for But I can’t let go; yes please, I want more Can’t watch you slip into the clouds below Well I once caught a glimpse but it faded from view Lost amid the street lamps and the glare of the moon Still I try to locate her with maximum zoom And if you swing back around, girl I’ve waited for you Man, I once caught a glimpse but it faded from view Lost amid the street lamps and the glare of the moon Still I try to locate her with maximum zoom And if you swing back around, girl I’m waiting for you I can’t stand by when i’ve seen what could be I can’t just delete the memories of what you do to me Oh darling, please

Hypergiant 03:45
I spun the dial, I zoomed in And happened on the most peculiar thing A brand new star; the brightest point of light I’d seen so far Had to go to her; her luminosity proved too much of a lure So all the best advice I went against when I moved in Love sprung forth like a supernova Now we’re circling each other over and over Love grew into a hypergiant Whose magnetic fields we’ve both come to rely on And I don’t mind if you don’t too She’s of a higher spectral class Than all the superstars and bright young things that pass Across my sky; daylight breaks and she’s the reason why Quickens the pulsar when our orbital planes collide Her prominences bring water to the eye But that’s all right Love sprung forth like a supernova Now we’re circling each other over and over Love grew into a hypergiant Like the third from the right in the belt of Orion And I don’t mind if you don’t too And I don’t mind If she fills up the sky Honey I don’t care If I wake up and Earth’s no longer there Such is our love Can you feel it now Love sprung forth like a supernova Now we’re circling each other over and over Love grew into a hypergiant Whose magnetic fields we’ve both come to rely on So let our worlds collide I don’t care if I'm blinded by the light
