You came here from outer space
and there's nothing we have in common
is this why we feel so trapped
by the bounds which we have grown
but you knew I think about stars
yes you knew I think about what's out there
you were curious so was I
now we're haunted by the knowledge that we
share
and all the little lights in life
they're meant to show you where to go
but if you turn them up too bright
they'll blind you
they'll blind you
there are some things that I just
wouldn't like to know
you came here from outer space
and that's the way I'd like to keep it
eiderdown in each other's hands
mud to hide each other's feet in
but if you never say goodbye
does it mean we'll never part
and if you disappear suddenly
does it mean that you won't leave
the tiniest trace in my heart?
and all the little lights in life
they're meant to show you where to go
but if you turn them up too bright
they'll blind you
they'll blind you
there are some things that I just
wouldn't like to know
and if you are my pal
yes if you are my pal
let the moon do the magic
is this how you turned so rich
travelling the galaxy?
is this how you turned so sad
learning things you never knew?
is this how our story ends
carrying this burden on our own?
separated by the miles and years of light but
could you look me in the eye
aware but without much care and
if we get to start all over again
could you whisper in my ear
there are the little lights in life
they're meant to show you where to go
but if you turn them up too bright
they'll blind you
they'll blind you
there are some things that I just
wouldn't like to know
and if you are my pal
yes if you are my pal
let the moon do the magic
after all isn't this where you came from?
