You came here from outer space
And there’s nothing we have in common
Is this why we feel so trapped
By the bonds 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 the way 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
And mud to hide each other’s feet in
But if you never say goodbye
Doesn’t mean we’ll never part
And if you disappear suddenly
Doesn’t mean that you won’t leave the tiniest
Trace in my heart? No
And all the little lights in life
They’re meant to show you the way 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 (x2)
Is this how you turn so rich,
Travelling the galaxy?
Is this how you turn so sad,
Learning things you never knew?
Is this how a story ends,
Carrying this burden on our own?
Separated by demise 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 the way 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 (x3)
After all, isn’t this where you came from?
