Oh My Stars

A Weather - Oh My Stars

Now I know why

you're floating away

like a white balloon

untied today or last night

I like the sounds

you when you sleep

like you're eating a meal

grinding your teeth or just breathing

Oh my stars

Crying, "Oh my stars!"

Oh my stars

Can't strangle anyone who has light

in their life

Put your mouth here on my belly

Put your fingers in my hair

After mountains there are valleys

We can fall asleep there

Sometimes it's hard

thinking about how the plans we made

won't happen today or tonight

I'm trying real hard

to not make you feel

like you've done something wrong

by leaving the chips open

(I won't wake you up)

Singing, "Oh my stars"

Oh my stars

Oh my stars

Can't strangle all my friends and their wives

and their sons' wives

Put your neck here on your best friend's

Hold your mouth up to the phone

Use the seatbelt like a bookend

We can sleep when we get home
