BUT I CAN'T ESCAPE THIS HEART! They say you can't breathe in space... BUT I NEVER BREATHED WITHOUT YOU ANYWAY! [Chorus] And I would cross the stars Just to hold you in my arms Even if the ground's long gone Even if the light takes years to come I'd escape to Mars But never leave your heart behind [Outro] And when the sky forgets my name I'll still be calling yours [voice breaks] I'll still be calling yours...
