lyrics

I didn't plan it
Stole a ship and crash-landed
I was aiming for Venus
In the hopes she would teach us to love

But my calculations
Held a few wrong equations
Now the moon's on my doorstep
And I'm gazing at darkness above

It's so lonely out here
I can't quite explain
I'd come back to Earth
But I don't want the pain
The gravity of heartache's not something I'd miss
Here in the Sea of Tranquility, I could get used to this

But then I see you
And that spaceship starts calling my name

I made my decision
To take on the mission
I patched up that spaceship
Got packed up and ready to go

But the moon, she adores me
And she tells me her stories
Oh the dark can be kind
To a fragmented mind, and you know

It's so lonely out here
But I can pretend
There's nothing to fear
That the dark is a friend
The gravity of heartache's not something I've missed
Here in the Sea of Tranquility, I could get used to this

But then I see you
And that spaceship keeps calling my name
Name

Oh, you're thousands of lightyears away
But I promised I'd meet you some day

It's so lonely out here
I can't quite explain
I'm frightened of Earth
But I can handle the pain
The gravity of heartache is a small price to pay
For the warmth of your smile, for a sunrise in May

And now I see you
And my spaceship keeps calling your name
