									CLOSER THAN MARS (Jason A. Heald)
We could be closer than Mars
with a love much bigger than Jupiter 
and passion hotter than the hills of Mercury.
We?d live a life full of wonder
richer than all the colors in the rings of Saturn.
But we stand as cold as a Neptune sea.
Planets of a kind circle through the sky,
unaware of the pull the have on each other.
Your gravity tugs as you orbit me.
Bodies that attract will find a galaxy to share.
We could be closer than Mars
with a love much bigger than Jupiter 
and passion hotter than the hills of Mercury.
We?d live a life full of wonder
richer than all the colors in the rings of Saturn.
But we stand as cold as a Neptune sea.
The atmosphere has changed with you so near;
a perfect night for lunar exploration.
A rush of cosmic flight at the speed of light.
More than just a theory, relativity is here.
We could be closer than Mars
with a love much bigger than Jupiter 
and passion hotter than the hills of Mercury.
We?d live a life full of wonder
richer than all the colors in the rings of Saturn.
But we stand as cold as a Neptune sea.
Tonight we?ll melt polar icecaps when love prevails.
Tonight we?ll grab a comet by the tail.
It will pull us closer than Mars
with a love much bigger than Jupiter 
and passion hotter than the hills of Mercury.
We?d live a life full of wonder
richer than all the colors in the rings of Saturn.
Thaw a heart as cold as a Neptune sea.
