I longed for you since I was born
A man so sensitive and warm
And that you were

With pride and strength no one would test
But yet have masculine finesse
And so much more

You took me riding in your rocket you gave me a star
At a half a mile from heaven you dropped me back
Down to this cold, cold world

You took me riding in your rocket you gave me a star
At a half a mile from heaven you dropped me back
Down to this cold, cold world

Just like a Shakespeare of your time
With looks to blow Picasso's mind
You were the best

Your body moved with grace and song
Like symphonies of Bach or Brahms
Nevertheless,

Ooh, you took me riding in your rocket you gave me a star
But at a half a mile from heaven you dropped me back
Down to this cold, cold world

Ooh, you took me riding in your rocket you gave me a star
At a half a mile from heaven you dropped me back
Down to this cold, cold world

Do Do Do-oo, Do Do Do-oo, Do Do Do-oo, Do Do Do-oo
Do Do Do-oo, Do Do Do-oo

The passion burning in your heart
Would make hell's fire seem like a spark
Where did it go

Just why that you would overnight
Turn love to stone as cold as ice
I'll never, never know

Baby you took me riding in your rocket gave me a star
Half a mile from heaven you dropped me back
Down to this cold, cold world

(Riding in your rocket gave me a star
Half a mile from heaven you dropped me back
Down)
Baby you dropped me back ooh ooh ooh

You took me riding in your rocket you gave me a star
Half a mile from heaven you dropped me back
Down to this cold, cold world
