if you knew
your smile excites me
your voice, I can recognize anywhere
your touch
sends me to mars
I’m confused
But I keep living on
Day by day
I see you looking at me
This feeling
Sends me to mars
Walking around in a world without you
Walking around the places I used to run into you
You were never there when I looked for you
Yet I want to hear what you want to say
I’m listening even if you think I’m not
You look up at me and the feeling…
Sends me to mars
