Observatory Lyrics

Glenn Tilbrook Observatory

She was married to someone else
I was lonely and lived by myself
Maybe that's just a fight that you can't win
So we met and we started the clock
Did that help? No it did not
I suppose I knew that going in
And now watch as the broken hearts begin

But at least we were 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 was gone
But at least we were calm

Fun is fun but when push comes to shove
When it's done we deny it was love
And we say, what were we thinking of?
And the room where we looked at the sky
Will be there with it's telescope eye
Now I won't get to meet all your friends
As we go down the road of dead ends

But at least we were 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 was gone
But at least we were calm

She was married to someone else
I was lonely and lived by myself
Maybe that's just a battle you can't win
