  • Coloratura
    We fell in through the clouds
    And everyone before us is there welcoming us now
    It's the end of death and doubt
    And loneliness is out

    Coloratura
    The place we dreamed about
    The melodies inside yourself
    And love come pouring out
    And everyone's allowed
    We're feathered by the crowd

    And up there in the heavens
    Galileo and those pining for the moon
    Know it's a slow burn
    Through Pioneer and Helix
    Oumamama, Heliopause, and Neptune
    We're a slow burning tune
    But we'll get there

    So for now
    In this crazy world, I do
    I just want you

    In the end, it's all about
    The love you're sending out

    And up there in the heavens
    The explorers who've all gathered by balloon
    Saw the world turn
    Through Voyager, Callisto, Calliope
    Betelgeuse, the neon moons
    We're a slow burning tune
    But we'll touch down soon

    So will you
    And in this crazy world, I do
    I just want you

    And up there in the heavens
    Galileo saw reflections of us too
    Pluribus unum, unus mundus
    And all the satellites imbue
    The purple, yellow, green, red, orange and the blue
    Oh, it's a crazy world, it's true
    Sing it out

    Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

    And in this crazy world, I do
    I just want
    In this crazy world, it's true
    I just want you

    Poets prophesy up in the blue
    Together, that's how we'll make it through Writer/s: Christopher Anthony John Martin, Davide Rossi, Guy Rupert Berryman, John Metcalfe, Jonathan Buckland, Max Martin, Paris Strother, William Champion
