Tekst piosenki
[Verse 1]
Your face ignites a fuse to my patience
Whatever you do is gonna be wrong
There’s no time to interrupt the detonation
Be good to me before you’re gone
When I met you I was fine with my nothing
I grew with you and now I’ve changed
What I’ve become is something I can’t be without your loving
Be good to me, it isn’t a game
[Pre-Chorus]
Now let me see, it’s you and me, forgive a good God
How do you suppose that we’ve survived?
Come on, that’s right, left right
Make light of all the heavier
[Chorus]
Cause you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
[Bridge]
When you resist me, hon, I cease to exist
Because I only like the way I look, I look into your eyes
And when you come back, you commemorate the penetration of the sun
Into the deep dark sky
[Pre-Chorus]
Now let me see, it’s you and me, forgive a good God
How do you suppose that we’ve survived?
Come on, that’s right, left right
Make light of all the heavier
[Chorus]
Cause you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
[Post-Chorus]
Started, started off, started off
Started off, started off, started off, baby
Started off, started off, started off, now
Started off, started off, started off, baby
Started off, started off, started, started
Started, started
[Chorus]
You and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
[Post-Chorus]
Started, started off, started off
Started off, started off, started off, baby
Started off, started off, started off, now
Started off, started off, started off, baby
Started off, started off, started, started
Started, started
Started off, started off, started off, baby
Started off, started off, started off, now
Started off, started off, started off, baby
Started off, started off, started, started
Started, started
[Outro]
And I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
Oh, you and I will be like a couple of cosmonauts
Except with way more gravity than when we started off
Tłumaczenie piosenki
Analiza piosenki
Apple pierwotnie napisała utwór „Cosmonauts” do filmu Judda Apatowa z 2012 roku. Ostatecznie nie wykorzystano go w ścieżce dźwiękowej. Fiona nagrała go na potrzeby albumu „Fetch the Bolt Cutters”, dodając nowe wokale.
„To było wyzwanie, ponieważ chciałam napisać piosenkę o dwóch ludziach, którzy mieli być razem na zawsze, i to nie jest tak naprawdę piosenka, która jest świetnie przygotowana, ponieważ nie wiem, czy chcę być z kimkolwiek na zawsze.
Wydaje mi się, że właśnie dlatego zinterpretowałam to jako: „Będziemy ty i ja w tym małym naczyniu sami w kosmosie, z wyjątkiem tego, że będzie ważył znacznie więcej, a ty naprawdę będziesz mnie denerwować”.
„To powinna być piosenka o byciu razem na zawsze, więc oczywiście moja pierwsza linijka brzmi:„Twoja twarz rozpala zapalnik mojej cierpliwości. ”Tak jak cokolwiek robisz, idzie się mylić.”
W rzeczywistości ciężar rośnie wraz z grawitacją. Większa grawitacja oznacza większą wagę. Wydaje mi się, że Fiona mówi o tym, jak miłość z czasem się nasila, w porównaniu do tego, kiedy „zaczynaliśmy”.
