Been reading books for all her life
She knows how to read two books at a time
Yeah, she's that smart
She's got a job
She's got her own flat
She says she's not lonely
She says she's got a cat
They're doing alright
But deep inside she always wanted something more
To build a ship and make a trip around the world
And never come back
She wanted too..
To visit the places she was reading about
To fall in love and maybe die in the fight
Living assassin's life
Ta-ra-ra
I assume, you'd rather live in a book
Without these fancy rules amongst vikings and Robin Hoods
Just say what you wanna
Say what you were dreaming about for a very long time inside your head
To escape this little town
And live somewhere else for a while in places you read about
Just say where you wanna sail
We're sailing now to Mars
We're sailing now to Mars
Through the tunnel full of stars
Or maybe we're just inside your head
We're just lying on a bed
And sailing to Mars
You and I
I wanted to try to taste her lips
So I took a chance, I counted to six
It was our first kiss
So maybe darling let's follow the stars
So maybe darling let's forget about others
Let's remember just us - you and I
I assume, you'd rather live in a book
Without these fancy rules amongst vikings and Robin Hoods
Just say what you wanna
Say what you were dreaming about for a very long time inside your head
To escape this little town
And live somewhere else for a while in places you read about
Just say where you wanna sail
We're sailing now to Mars
We're sailing now to Mars
Through the tunnel full of stars
Or maybe we're just inside your head
We're just lying on a bed
And sailing to Mars
You and I
You've been reading books for all your life
You know how to read two books at a time
You're so smart
Let's write a book, a book about us
Let's start a line and try to be us
No one but us
