One day it just snowed, I guess
And they closed the roads to your heart
You came home like a dead star

No light left, no loving anymore
Years ago, you sent a postcard
It's the one that always made me laugh
It said 'send for reinforcements,
cause there's too much here for me to love'.

What could they say?
What could they say to make you feel okay?
What could they do?
What could they do to make you feel okay?

Years ago I read a story about a man who had a plan
He tied himself onto a balloon, yeah
Cut the ties and tried to reach the moon
Rescued by an airline pilot 15,000 feet above the world
They dragged him down then wished him luck
They hoped that he had learned his lesson well

What could they say?
What could they say to make you feel okay?
What could they do?
What could they do to make you feel okay?

Kathy, I can still see stars
The same ones that we wished upon
I know you know your way around
But I can tell you're losing ground
I see you on the radar
But you know I can never bring you back
You cut the ties, you're floating free, yeah
High and low and in-between

You cut the ties, you're floating free, yeah
High and low and in-between
