You are the crowded streets that I walk in You are the late night calls on my phone You are the patterned sheets that I sleep in You are the evening strolls on my own And for a long time you were my friend And swore you would be, you swore you'd be to the end But now it seems like that Mister and Miss Understood They never did understand That it's a long way From Venus back to everyday It's such a long way If all they get is little of space You're smilin' though your heart is really aching And you're aching through a really good time You're dreaming through the days of awakening And you're diggin' deep in dug-out mines Well, for a long time I thought your pains and worries were Just occasional blues But you know although this case got worse and became hard To make it work out with you It is a long way From Venus back to everyday Such a long way If all we get is little of space From Venus back to everyday You know I've tried, for sure I've tried to work this out To wash this out of my brain But it seems like I always will Have to pay those precious bills when When debt is all the remains Of our love So it is a long way From Venus back to everyday Such a long way If all we get is little of space
