[Chorus]
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day, deep into the sea
But takes a little piece of me, a little piece of me
[Verse 1]
Oh, it's so beautiful out and I can't see why we're not allowed to be
Up in the sky with the birds, counting the flowers
And oh, my powers have failed me again when I can't see beginning to end
Though I try and test it again through the hours
[Pre-Chorus]
Wandering stars in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering stars in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
[Chorus]
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
Deeper every day, deep into the sea
A little piece of me, a little piece of me
[Verse 2]
Oh, why can't I be green as the grass beneath my feet?
As fresh as the dew hits the ground in the morning
And not yellow like bumble bees, please take me off my knees
My knees, I don't wanna be red forever
[Pre-Chorus]
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
[Chorus]
I've been, I've been looking
I've' been looking at the moon, but I've been thinking of myself
I've got me under my own skin, I don't need nobody else
I'm looking at the moon, but I'm thinking of myself
I've got me under my own skin, I don't need nobody else
[Pre-Chorus]
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
[Outro]
If I could have sunlight in the palm of your hand
I'd take the moonlight instead
If I could have sunlight in the palm of your hand
I'd take the moonlight instead
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day, deep into the sea
But takes a little piece of me, a little piece of me
[Verse 1]
Oh, it's so beautiful out and I can't see why we're not allowed to be
Up in the sky with the birds, counting the flowers
And oh, my powers have failed me again when I can't see beginning to end
Though I try and test it again through the hours
[Pre-Chorus]
Wandering stars in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering stars in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
[Chorus]
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
My love grows deeper every day and takes a little piece of me
Deeper every day, deep into the sea
A little piece of me, a little piece of me
[Verse 2]
Oh, why can't I be green as the grass beneath my feet?
As fresh as the dew hits the ground in the morning
And not yellow like bumble bees, please take me off my knees
My knees, I don't wanna be red forever
[Pre-Chorus]
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
[Chorus]
I've been, I've been looking
I've' been looking at the moon, but I've been thinking of myself
I've got me under my own skin, I don't need nobody else
I'm looking at the moon, but I'm thinking of myself
I've got me under my own skin, I don't need nobody else
[Pre-Chorus]
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
Wandering storms in the blue could not be born 'cause of you
[Outro]
If I could have sunlight in the palm of your hand
I'd take the moonlight instead
If I could have sunlight in the palm of your hand
I'd take the moonlight instead
