Deep Space Lyrics
Rickie Lee Jones
These stars
No one else can see
Trapeze the height of thee
Vanish as they call
These blues
No one else can hear
No one else can sing
This one for you
Can they, dear?
Things that you do are always with me
When youre laughing
Youre always here
Whats the use in crying?
It wont matter when were old
This tear will
Finally fall
Keep your eyes here
When theres no net at all
Where the lords face
Is an all-night cafe
Theres a woman who will wait on
What you have to say
And your dreams are like marbles
In the pocket of a little boy
And they whisper when you hold them
Like a beautiful girl
Beautiful girl
