Constellation Of The Heart [The Red Shoes]

 

                We take all the telescopes

                And we turn them inside out

                And we point them away from the big sky

                Put your eye right up to the glass, now

                And here we'll find the constellation of the heart

 

                                Steer your life by these stars

                                On the unconditional chance

                                'Tis here where Hell and Heaven dance

                                This is the constellation of the heart

 

                We take all the telescopes

                And we turn them inside out

                And we point them away from the big sky

                Put your eye right up to the glass, now

                And here we'll find the constellation of the heart

 

                                The constellation of the heart

                                The constellation of the heart

                                The constellation of the heart

                                The constellation of the heart

 

                We take all the telescopes

                And we turn them inside out

                And we point them away from the big sky

                Put your eye right up to the glass, now

                And here we'll find the constellation of the heart

 

                                The constellation of the heart

                                The constellation of the heart

                                The constellation of the heart

 

                Well we think you'd better wake up capt'n

                There's something happen'n up ahead

                We've never seen anything like it

                We've never seen anything like it before

 

                                I want a full report

                That's it

                                What do you mean, "That's it?"

                That's all you get

                You'd better do something 'bout it

                                What am I supposed to do about it?

                We don't know, but you can't run away from it

                Maybe you'd better face it

                                I can't do that

                C'mon face it!

                                I can't do that

                C'mon, c'mon face it

                                What am I gonna do?

                                Is it gonna hurt, is it gonna hurt me bad?

 

                                Ooh here's the constellation of the heart

 

                Who said anything about it hurting?

                It's gonna be beautiful

                It's gonna be wonderful

                It's gonna be paradise

 

                                (Just being alive, it can really hurt...)

                                Ooh find me the man with the ladder

                It's gonna be beautiful

                                And he might lift me up to the stars

                It's gonna be wonderful

                It's gonna be paradise

 

                                (Without the pain there'd be no learning

                                Without the hurting we'd never change.)

 

                                Oooh and if you see the woman with the key

                It's gonna be beautiful

                It's gonna be wonderful

                It's gonna be paradise

                                I hear she's opening up the doors to Heaven

 

                                Wonderful

                                Wonderful

                It's gonna be beautiful

                                Beautiful

                It's gonna be wonderful

                                Wonderful

                It's gonna be paradise

 

                                Oh and here comes the man with the stick

                It's gonna be beautiful

                It's gonna be wonderful

                It's gonna be paradise

 

                                He said he'd fish me out of the moon

                It's gonna be beautiful

                It's gonna be wonderful

                It's gonna be paradise

 

                                Ohoh here's the constellation of the heart

                It's gonna be beautiful

                                It is the constellation of the heart

                It's gonna be wonderful

                It's gonna be paradise

 

                                Oh yes it is the constellation of the heart
