Goodbye Cassiopeia (4:25)

Stories spread across the skies
They told you it’s a lion
They told you it’s a bow and arrow

Oh but don’t you believe them
Do doo do doo
Oh oh oh ooh woah oh

Pictures spread across the sky
They told you it’s a bear
They told you those were pots and pans
What else do you believe?
Cause I believe you and I
I see you and I say hey!

Goodbye Cassiopeia
Goodbye Cassiopeia

They told you it’s a lion
They told you it’s a bow and arrow

Galileo’s heavens
Just a man like you and I
Lost his daily bread for a dream
Celestial etch-a-sketch away

Oh oh oh oh oh ooh woah oh
Oh oh oh oh oh ooh woah oh

Pictures spread across the sky
They told you it’s a bear
They told you those were pots and pans
But I see you and I
I see you and I say hey!

Goodbye Cassiopeia
Goodbye Cassiopeia
Goodbye
