lyrics

ORBIT

Maybe we don’t dream the same dreams
I know we don’t see the same things.
But I have tried to hold you here in some safe place.
I don’t think you want it dear
From the look on your face, yeah.

The world goes around and you get around
Don’t you babe, in your little space
you will Orbit.
Your world goes around while you get around
It’s okay in your reckless space
you will Orbit.

I look in your eyes for some light –
I want to see what goes on inside.
Here in this life you throw away
What good are words I say?
You won’t listen to me when all you have left is nothing.
Still…

The world goes around and you get around
Don’t you babe, in your little space
you will Orbit.
Your world goes around while you get around
It’s okay in your reckless space
you will Orbit.

I go crazy watching you lose again
Running a race I’ll never understand.
You can’t help it but yes you can.
You can’t help it but yes you can.
Moving so fast but what’s the use?
You don’t see the answers
You can’t find the clues.
Flying so high but what good is it
When you’re still stuck in the same damn Orbit.

While the band persistently flirted with success in that genre through well-placed television exposure and constant performances, they went on an indefinite sabbatical in 1999. - J. Duffy ... more
