Lyrics Fiona Apple

Fiona Apple

Cosmonauts

Your face ignites a fuse to my patience

Whatever you do is gonna be wrong

There's no time to interrupt the detonation

Be good to me before you're gone

When I met you I was fine with my nothing

I grew with you and now I've changed

What I've become is something I can't be without your loving

Be good to me, it isn't a game

Now let me see, it's you and me, forgive a good God

How do you suppose that we've survived?

Come on, that's right, left right

Make light of all the heavier

Cause you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off

Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off

When you resist me, hon, I cease to exist

Because I only like the way I look, I look into your eyes

And when you come back, you commemorate the penetration of the sun

Into the deep dark sky

Now let me see, it's you and me, forgive a good God

How do you suppose that we've survived?

Come on, that's right, left right

Make light of all the heavier

Cause you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off

Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off

Started, started off, started off

Started off, started off, started off, baby

Started off, started off, started off, now

Started off, started off, started off, baby

Started off, started off, started, started

Started, started

You and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off

Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off

Started, started off, started off

Started off, started off, started off, baby

Started off, started off, started off, now

Started off, started off, started off, baby

Started off, started off, started, started

Started, started

Started off, started off, started off, baby

Started off, started off, started off, now

Started off, started off, started off, baby

Started off, started off, started, started

Started, started

And I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off

Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts

Except with way more gravity than when we started off
