How many stars, how many moons Can't the moment be too soon By the time I've searched my mind All of it around it's true If I could sing, if I could croon If I could only write the tune That would make you take you to the moon There's a heaven there, I assume But look, there is a stratosphere And I'd like to take you there I'm not sure I know the way But I hate to hear you say You wanna throw yourself in the river And ask to be delivered to the ocean You wanna throw yourself in the river Expect to be considered more casual Why should I get so nervous When she considers suicide first How could drowning be that much worse? How could I be that much worse? Well, it sounded pretty good rehearsed in my head But as soon as I said it, I wished I was dead So something coming out the water So I couldn't tell (So I couldn't tell) But look, there is a stratosphere And I'd like to take you there I'm not sure I know the way But I hate to hear you say You wanna throw yourself in the river And ask to be delivered to the ocean You wanna throw yourself in the river Expect to be considered more casual Na na na na Na na na na na na na Well, I bet we'll make a bigger splash if we did it together If we throw ourselves in the river And ask to be delivered to the ocean If we wouldn't throw ourselves in the river We shouldn't accept anything but a passing mention A passing mention A passing mention
