| Well I hit the charts and I took a trip
|
| On this silver eagle rocket ship
|
| Hey now look at me I’m hanging with the stars
|
| And I’ve tried my hardest not to change
|
| But everyone around keeps acting strange
|
| People look at me like I’m a man from Mars
|
| That’s what I told her through the sound check noise in Kansas
|
| And the satellite relayed me this reply
|
| Back on Earth
|
| There’s a woman who’s wishing
|
| An ordinary man was sitting in the kitchen
|
| Drinking her coffee after loving her all night long
|
| Back on Earth
|
| There’s a brown-eyed baby
|
| Who’s old enough now to tell me all the ways
|
| She’s needing her daddy
|
| And wondering when he’s coming home
|
| Now I’m out in space here wondering if it’s worth
|
| Everything I’m missing
|
| Back on Earth
|
| But I played the show and the crowd went wild
|
| Shared my heart and the good Lord smiled
|
| And I thanked them all for being kind to me In the morning there’s another town
|
| With a hotel room where we touch down
|
| Where I’ll face the situation’s gravity
|
| As I navigate the Milky Way I contemplate the dues I pay
|
| Could there be another way, God, I love to sing and play
|
| Back on Earth
|
| There’s a woman who’s wishing

|
| Who’s old enough now to tell me all the ways
|

|
| And wondering when he’s coming home
|
| Now I’m out in space here wondering if it’s worth
|
| Everything I’m missing
|
| Back on Earth
|
| I’m up in space here wondering if it’s worth
|
| Everything I’m missing
|
| Back on Earth |
