Alvvays
Red Planet
[Verse 1]
It's been almost twenty years on the red planet
​A place where there are no tears, it is just water floating
​No, they're not quite emoting
​I dream of the other days, of the times I held you
​Left in an autumn blaze, now I idle in bubbles
​Just collecting the rubble

[Chorus]
​Well, I waited for you out here
But that was just delusional
​And I've painted all these pictures
Of Earth, but that's unusual
​Unusual to you

[Verse 2]
​Met at a seminar, shared the same table
​Brushed by you at the bar, didn't match your description
And soon became my prescription
I think of the junipers in the spring growing
Far more than Jupiter, it doesn't draw a reaction
Temporary distraction

[Chorus]
And I've waited for you out here
But that may be delusional
And I've painted all these pictures
Of Earth, but that's unusual
Unusual to you
​​Unusual, unusual
Unusual to you
[Outro]
And I waited for forever
And that was just delusional
So I painted all these pictures
Of Earth, but that's unusual
Unusual, unusual
Unusual to you
