Lyrics

We've got to get a message to the stars above
Like radios in heaven hearing just enough
And every single teardrop along the way
We put them in our pockets for a rainy day
But here we are in trouble like we always are
Just praying for a miracle and reaching up for stars
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
We got to get a message to the promised land
Like semaphores in motion so they'll understand
But every single vision that we saw today
We didn't quite believe it in the usual way
Yet here we are in heaven, who could want for more?
We always end up getting what we're asking for
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
We love you
Wouldn't leave you
We miss you
Far away
It's just another promise like we've heard before
We're never really knowing what we're fighting for
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
Oh, we love you
Wouldn't leave you
We miss you
Far away
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
