Intro

Break

Do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do,

Do do do, do do do, do do do-oo.

Interlude

Verse 1

I longed for you since I was born;

A woman sensi-tive and warm, and that you were.

With pride and strength no one would test,

But yet have femi-nine fi-nesse, and so much more.

Chorus 1

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

Interlude

Verse 2

A female Shakespeare of your time,

With looks to blow Pi-casso's mind; you were the best.

Your body moved with grace and song,

Like sympho-nies by Bach or Brahms, neverthe-less. Oh, oh;

Chorus 2

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

Break

Do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do,

Do do do, do do do,

Verse 3

The passion burning in your heart,

Would make hell's fire seem like a spark; where did it go?

Just why that you would over-night,

Turn love to stone as cold as ice, I'll never know.

Chorus 3

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world. Cold, too cold.

Chorus 4

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

(I would not do that to a dog).

Chorus 5

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

You took me riding in your rocket; gave me a star.

But at a half a mile from Heaven,

You dropped me back down to this cold, cold world.

Outro

Rocket love.
