Your lips say one thing
But the drugs say another
How can I massage
This intergalactic ulcer?
Goodbye Sober Day2x.
Hello Milky Way.
Pin my ear to the wisdom post
Hang me up and drain me dry
Mend my shipwrecked spirit
Lift the veil from my eyes.
Goodbye Sober Day. 2x
The years grew wings and flew away.
Ghosts of the past become barbarians...
...Of the future.
And I still pity you
Because what you said was true.
Goodbye Sober Day.x2
Hello Milky Way.
May your sun be blown out just like a candle
May your sea burn like tar
May your sky be rolled up like a scroll
May your blue moon drip with blood.
What would they say if you went up in smoke?
If I dug you up and made soup of your bones?
Goodbye Sober Day.x5Chorus:
I could be your sister, I could be your mother
We could be friends, I'd even be your brother
But I'd rather be your lover
That's right, I'd rather be your lover
I don't know where I stand with you
I never ever make any plans with you
I don't know what I mean to you
The only thing I know is I dream of you
Bridge:
And all that I know [all that I know]
Is I just don't understand [just don't understand]
Why my, mmmm, happiness always lies
In the palm of your hand, but
(chorus)
Sometimes I know what you're thinking next
But wouldn't it be better if I loved you less?
Sometimes I think that I made you up
But wouldn't it be better if I gave you up?
(bridge)
(chorus)
Are you surprised?
(Spoken:)
Tell me whatch-ya want, tell me whatch-ya need
Tell me whatch-ya want, tell me whatch-ya need
I, I betcha I, I give you whatch-ya need
Take a walk within me, venture through the dark sea
Can't you see, I need you beside me
Don't you see, I want you to want me
(bridge)
(chorus, repeat)
Are you surprised?
(chorus)
Are you surprised? Are you?
