Beth Orton Lyrics
Galaxy of Emptiness (alternate version) Lyrics
Stars light they sky and a galaxy of emptiness tonight
Though I'm happiest when there's no reason for me to be
When no one's expectations to weigh heavy on my heart
And so much hope it sometimes tears me all apart
Won't you please knock me off my feet, for a while?
Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while?
Stars light they sky in a gutter full of of broken dreams
tonight
Though I'm not content that's the way it seems to be
Still I've been fightin' all week though I don't know what for
Hopin' someone else, someone near knows the score
Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while?
Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while?
And there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole galaxy of emptiness tonight
There's a galaxy of emptiness...
A whole galaxy of emptiness...
Monkey see, monkey do
I spent my whole life surrounded by people like you
With all that expectation to weigh heavy on your heart
But no ideas to later tear it all apart
Won't you please knock me off my feet, for a while?
Could you please knock me off my feet, for a while?
Cause there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight
A galaxy of emptiness...
Burn burn burn your soul to find
Burn burn burn your soul away
Burn a soul to find
Your soul to find
