If you were a star, I'd know just where you are
and if I were the moon, I'd get my light from you
Cause everyone knows it's true, they revel in your glory, glory
But when the heat starts beating through, I revel in your morning glory
If I had my way, you'd hear just what I say
and then you'd take to heart--the flood would start
Cause while we know it's true
We'd find some space--give some room and
And if they look surprised, I can say we're only human
Cause forty years ago, they wouldn't know your name
But only years ago, they whisper, softly, calling out your name, Lora-Jean.
Maybe it's just fate, or luck, the same.
Cause maybe we're just meant to feel the same.
Just like we own the world, but different planets, seas, and caves
And we both know it's true--They look up to you.
And though I'm eye to eye, I'll try to survive.
Cause forty years ago, they wouldn't know your name
But only years ago, they whisper, softly, crying out your name,
Lora-Jean
Maybe I can find a way, before it's too late--before we both change.
If it's just to pass the time, to truly feel "Sublime", and then we both can change
Cause 40 years ago, they wouldn't know your name
But only years ago, they shout, from rooftops, calling out your name
--Lora-Jean.
