Cooper Alice Might As Well Be On Mars Lyrics

Might As Well Be On Mars Lyrics

(Alice Cooper/Dick Wagner/Desmond Child)
The city streets are wet with rain
tonight
Taxi drivers swerve from lane to lane
A lonely guitar man playin'
down the hall
Midnight blues comin' through the walls
I tried to call you
on the telephone
I left it off the hook
Just to hear it ring
You told
me you were better off alone
I never knew that tears could stain
I'm on
the roof and I'm starin' at the stars
Lookin' down at all the cars
I can
see you
In the window of your favorite corner bar
But to reach you is
just too far
And I might as well be on Mars
The city seems so old and
grey and beat
It closes in and makes me wanna suffocate
And you just live
across the street
But that's a billion miles away
You've turned my world
into a dark and lonely place
Like a planet lost in space, my light is
fadin'
I'd cross the universe to be right where you are
But I'm right in
your backyard
And I might as well be on Mars
CHORUS
I might as well be
on Mars
You can't see me
I might as well be the Man on the Moon
You
can't hear me
Oh, can you feel me so close
And yet so far
Baby, I
might as well be on Mars
Baby, I can't fly
If I could I'd come down to
ya
Maybe I should try
I'm on the roof and I'm starin' at the
stars
Lookin' down at all lthe cars
I can see you
In the window of
your favorite corner bar
But to reach is just too far
And I might as well
be on Mars
CHORUS
