I knew this world was not enough for me
When there's a thousand other stars that I can see
And everyone keeps asking me if I can stay
But my ship is packed and good to fly away
I'm a stranger in a strange land, a lonely astronaut
I know you won't believe me or the aliens I've fought
Forget about your worries, fly away with me and don't look back
I'm counting down now. I'm a lonely astronaut.
To the edges of this galaxy I've roamed
Still I'm looking for a planet to call home
Through the beauty of this cosmos I will search
I've gone too far to find my way back down to Earth
If you look out your window you'll see a shooting star tonight
And deep down you know in your heart it's just a lonely astronaut
