Lyrics

Who was that sneaking up the stairs Taking a hairpin from her hair Vision of the locks falling down Crushed my mind and played with the sound Of tapping, gentle tapping at my morning starship

The crystal glint of the turning glass The creaking sound of the rusted glass As she slowly opened the door The darkness told me nothing more Except to say that she was near my morning starship

She stood within the threshold silently A ray of moonlight caught her eyes Without a word she said, "Could I come in" And I said, "Well, you're in already You might as well sit down, and stay awhile"

She made her way across the room Her golden hair eclipsed the moon The perfect head framed in silver blue Find its way to the mind and I knew The girl, the girl, the girl heads for my morning starship

Ah, lala lala la Lala lala la La la la la, la la la Ah, la la la Lala lala la La la la la la La la la la La la la, la Oh

She's gone away, what can I do She took the keys, she's got the clue Mysteries unfold with the lights What she knows I'll never forget The girl, the girl, the girl heads for my morning starship Yeah, she travels with me now in my morning starship

Boom boom boom Morning starship
