He's dreaming of a distant star

She's dreaming of a happy marriage

Living a world apart

But living on different planets

He's praying for a moonlit night

She's waiting for a sunlit morning

Trying to get the forecast right



(Sometimes sadly mistaken) wide of the mark

(Mistaken) No second chance

(Mistaken) Round in circles in the dark

Seems like it's time to guess again



She's taken him for a ride

Too soon he believes her

He said it was below the mark

She said it was a misdemeanor

He said it was a bridge too far

She said it was a step to learning

Pouring over maps & charts
