Rocket

Written by：Al Jarreau/Eddie Harris

I know I never had had you in my grasp

And I held your hand like it was broken glass

And now isn't the time for people

Come around and remind me of you

Just because it shines it doesn't make it gold

You are just a troll and you dug yourself a hole

Now isn't the time for people

Come around and think they know the truth

No it isn't the time for the likes of you

I check the clock and tic and toc it through

And my eyes won't sleep

And my heart won't beat

It's over baby 'cause I can't breathe

So I rocket rocket rocket away

I rocket rocket rocket away

I rocket rocket rocket

I'm rocketin' away

I rocket 'cause I need space

I rocket 'cause I need space

I see cracks in my window the secret that we told

That we were lovable wrote everything in bone

Now isn't the time for people

Come around and think they know the truth

No it isn't the time for the likes of you

I check the clock and tic and toc it through

And my eyes won't sleep

And my heart won't beat

It's over baby 'cause I can't breathe

So I rocket rocket rocket away

I rocket rocket rocket away

I rocket rocket rocket

I'm rocketin' away

I rocket 'cause I need space

Oh my love oh my love

How we love but I let go

Oh my love oh I'm rocketin' away

I rocket 'cause I need space

Mouth won't speak

And my lungs won't breathe

We're over baby you and me

So I rocket rocket rocket away

I rocket rocket rocket away

I rocket rocket rocket

I'm rocketin' away

I rocket 'cause I need space

Oh my love oh my love

How we love but I let go

Oh my love oh I'm rocketin' away

I rocket 'cause I need space
