Venus stopped the train
Aw, the brakeman lost his place
The satellites were spinning in outer space
They televised her feelings, while the light
The light struck terror
I kept my distance because she fell in love with everyone
Smoking grass and taking Christmas trees
She fell in love with me
I was polite to her
A soft sadness had her much more than her loneliness
Her father warmed the benches
Vice president of southern branches
I reached out to her while her mother slept
I would never forget the light
The light, the light striking terror
I kept my distance because she fell in love with everyone
Smoking grass and taking Christmas trees
She fell in love with me
I was polite to her
A soft sadness had her much more than her loneliness
Satellite spinning
The satellites spin
Well, the light
The light, the light
The light, the light
The light strikes terror
The light strikes terror
I keep my distance because she falls in love with everyone
Smoking grass and taking Christmas trees
She falls in love with me
I'm polite to her
A soft sadness had her much more than her ugliness
I keep my distance because she falls in love with everyone
Smoking grass and taking Christmas trees
She falls in love with me
And I'm polite to her
I reach my soft hand out to her
I've known her for a very, very long time
