lyrics

Skyscrape, daybreak
And I can see the whites of your eyes
Crash and burn, bombs away
Terraform, our home is born

And they say, and they say
A pretty face will make your day

Clickety-clack, train on the track
Iron horse, steam rise
Long days, a crystal vase
Beautiful mind, our time

And they say, and they say
A pretty face will make your day

Kind words, a simple verse
Brings a smile to my face
Nursery rhyme, passin’ time
Sun it sets and history it binds

And they say, and they say
A pretty face will make your day

Bustin’ loose, footloose
Seven degrees between
Family ties, new lives
Green grass beneath your feet

And they say, and they say
A pretty face will make your day

And they say, and they say
A pretty face will make your day

And I can see the whites of your eyes
