https://youtu.be/gXMq5qX-Mfg

Lyrics

Jesus Christ about last night I can only apologise
The thought that it was over
Never entered my mind
The sun is up, the skies are blue
And I know how close we came
This voyage of self-discovery
Has my sails in flames

Here comes that feeling
Here it comes again
I’m waiting for this storm
To run out of rain

The journey is the trip I say
If your travel agent’s cool
Can anybody get me
From Mars to Liverpool?

Here comes that feeling
Here it comes again
I’m waiting for this storm
To run out of rain
