lyrics

The Earth moves around the Sun
That’s how the winter turns into the spring
The Earth moves around the Sun
And a body gets warm

I circle round your love, baby
Use your gravity and pull me down
The Earth moves around the Sun
That’s how a body gets warm

I don't like waiting, it's dark out there
I’m sick and tired of staying out in the cold
When you look at me you don’t shed a tear
Shine your light on me baby

The Earth moves around the Sun...

Honey you’re my star today
You radiate light
But you’re so far away
The Earth moves around the Sun
Make a body feel warm

I don’t like waiting – it’s dark out here...

The Earth moves around the Sun...

I’m like a rocket that can’t get started
Stuck in orbit, broken hearted
The Earth moves around the Sun
Make a body feel warm

I don’t like waiting – it’s dark out here
I’m sick and tired of staying out in the cold
When you look at me you don’t shed a tear
Shine your light on me baby

I want to feel the heat of your lips
Then we’ll take it to a total eclipse
Cause the Earth moves around the Sun
It makes a body get warm
