She was married to somebody else I was lonely and lived by myself Baby, that´s a battle you can´t win So we met and we started the clock Did that help no it did not
But I guess I knew that going in And watched the sweeping second hand
But at least I was calm On the road to the big observatory Where the planets were hung And the stars swung around the second story And we stumbled upon A room where a luminous moon was waning And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond But at least I was calm
Fun is fun, but when push comes to shove When it´s done, we´ll deny it was love She will say Jim this was a mistake And the room where we looked at the sky Will be there with its telescope eye Just another sentry kept awake
Watching over silverlake
But at least I was calm On the road to the big observatory Where the planets were hung And the stars swung around the second story And we stumbled upon A room where a luminous moon was waning And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond But at least I was calm
And you´ll be glad to leave with dignity intact She won´t be sad so much as matter-of-fact Like it was doomed and hopeless as a suicide pact
But at least I was calm On the road to the big observatory Where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story And we stumbled upon A room where a luminous moon was waning And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond But at least I was calm Yeah, at least I managed to stay calm
