Lyrics
Oh, boy, you're starry eyed
Lie back, baby, lie back
You've got heaven in your eyes
I like that, boy, I like that
Life doesn't always work out like you planned it
They say make lemonade outta lemons
But I tried and I just can't understand it
All this tryin' for no good reason
Man makes plans, and God laughs
Why do I even bother to ask?
Well, once, you and I
We were the king and queen of this town
It doesn't matter now, the sun's settin' on our love
Bye, baby
Oh, boy, you're starry eyed
Lie back, baby, lie back
You've got heaven in your eyes
I like that, boy, I like that
Life doesn't always work out like you planned it
They say make lemonade outta lemons
But I tried and I can't understand it
All this beggin' for no good reason
Man makes plans, and God laughs
Why do I even bother to ask, honey?
Once you and I
We were the king and queen of this town
Doesn't matter now, sun's settin' on our love
Bye, bye, baby
Oh, boy, you're starry eyed
Lie back, baby, lie back
You've got heaven in your eyes
I like that, boy, I like that
It doesn't matter what they say
Let's go do it anyway
'Cause you and I, heaven and I kind of love
You can be mine, I'll be yours
Come on, baby
Oh, boy, you're starry eyed
Lie back, baby, lie back
You've got heaven in your eyes
I like that, boy, I like that
Oh, boy, you're starry eyed
Lie back, baby, lie back
You've got heaven in your eyes
I like that, boy, I like that
