Rocket Science

from Four Minute Symphonies by Maryjo Mattea

/

lyrics

I think I'm in trouble
What are we doing here?
It's getting cold outside
And I'm out here all alone
And I should know better than
To get caught up in these charades
But it seems my education fell short
Of common sense

I like to make plans
And know where I'm going
But this makes the kind of sense that doesn't
And I don't have a clue
Of what to do now
How to get from A to B
It shouldn't be rocket science
What we make of chemistry

I see you falling for me
Could I be falling for you?
Though fear is blinding
We keep winding up
Outside each other's doors
It's always something with you
Or another with me
Fumbling toward a destination
That's unknown and out of reach

So where do we stand
Somewhere that's in between
Fighting hard against the labels
We craved long before
I fight to hang on
To what's left of my sanity
And I fight to keep you from
Sinking down

But now you're falling for me
Could I be falling for you?
Though fear is blinding
We keep winding up
Outside each other's doors
It's always something with you
Or another with me
Fumbling toward a destination
That's unknown and out of reach

I think I'm in trouble
What are we doing here?
It's getting cold outside
And I'm out here all alone...


And now you're falling for me
Could I be falling for you?
Though fear is blinding
We keep winding up
Outside each other's doors
It's always something with you
Or another with me
Fumbling toward a destination
That's unknown and out of reach
