Elvie Shane - Rocket Science

I bet you're out there seein' stars
In someone else's eyes by now
While I'm just out here in the dark
Sparkin' up and burnin' out
This Backwoods you had rolled for us
But it don't pack the same old punch
Your memory's gravity
And it just keeps me down

Yeah, if I found a way to make it past the moon
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
Ain't no way underneath this sky
I'm gettin' over you, I can't get that high
But I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
Forgettin' you's like rocket science

No, there ain't no fuse that sets me loose
And sends me soarin' somewhere else
Tried gettin' gone but it ain't no use
I can't get past the way it felt
When you took off at the speed of sound
'Cause that goodbye still hangs around
Said space and time were what you needed
But, damn, I need you now

Yeah, if I found a way to make it past the moon
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
Ain't no way underneath this sky
I'm gettin' over you, I can't get that high
But I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
Forgettin' you's like rocket science
Like rocket science

I got a feelin' this feelin' ain't got a fix
Yeah, and takin' these hits remind me what I miss

If I found a way to make it past the moon
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
No, there ain't no way underneath this sky
I'm gettin' over you, I can't get that high
But I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
Forgettin' you's like rocket science
