Now I know why   you're floating away   like a white balloon   untied today or last night      I like the sounds    you when you sleep    like you're eating a meal   grinding your teeth or just breathing      Oh my stars   Crying, "Oh my stars!"   Oh my stars   Can't strangle anyone who has light   in their life      Put your mouth here on my belly   Put your fingers in my hair   After mountains there are valleys   We can fall asleep there      Sometimes it's hard    thinking about how the plans we made   won't happen today or tonight      I'm trying real hard   to not make you feel   like you've done something wrong   by leaving the chips open      (I won't wake you up)   Singing, "Oh my stars"   Oh my stars   Oh my stars   Can't strangle all my friends and their wives   and their sons' wives      Put your neck here on your best friend's   Hold your mouth up to the phone   Use the seatbelt like a bookend   We can sleep when we get home
