| Tell me what does it take to make
|
| Take to make me a man
|
| You’ve been speaking to tired gods
|
| I’ve been conferring with cats
|
| They told me when to look to the sky
|
| Where to stand on that road
|
| Where they led me in secrecy
|
| Tracking signals of gold
|
| (You will wave goodbye to someone)
|
| You will wave goodbye to someone you forgot
|
| (Goodbye to someone)
|
| And I’ll say, «hello, hello astronaut»
|
| Now and then you look to that sky
|
| From that spot on the road
|
| Wondering at the elusive light
|
| I’ll be harvesting gold
|
| I’ll be harvesting gold
|
| I’ll be harvesting…
|
| ('Til you wave goodbye to someone)
|
| You will wave goodbye to someone you forgot
|
| (Goodbye to someone)
|
| And I’ll say, «hello, hello, hello»
|
| ('Til you wave goodbye to someone)
|
| You will wave goodbye to someone you forgot
|
| (Goodbye to someone)
|
| And I’ll say, «hello, hello astronaut»
|
| I’ve lost my way on this road
|
| Yet found a perfect way for me to go
|
| And to the love who lost me not
|
| I will wave goodbye as I say, «hello, hello, astronaut»
|
| (Goodbye to someone)
|
| You will wave goodbye to someone you forgot
|
| (Goodbye to someone)
|
| And I’ll say, «hello, hello»
|
| (You will wave goodbye)
|
| (Goodbye to someone)
|
| And I’ll say, «hello, hello astronaut» |
