I'm searching for a colour
Don't think it's got a name It's something between pink and brown Just like when the sun sets Sometimes when it rains Like it's the first time you see it go down Me and my boat Have been out for years now My collection of china's complete Except for that one piece I won't be satisfied I once held it but it disappeared They've stolen my wallet Now I'm finally broke Now I've finally got nothing to lose Your picture was in it The one thing that you left With that photo I've lost you for good I walk down to the port Take my motorboat And go out and turn the motor off And I listen to the waves I lay very still I try not to think Try not to breathe at all |

"EAGLE: 40 feet down 2 1/2, kicking up some dust ...4 forward ... 4 forward ... drifting to the right a little ...
... OK. Contact light. OK, engine stop ..." "HOUSTON: We copy you down, Eagle." "EAGLE: Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed." Well I'm walking in these streets again I'm back and it all looks the same And I feel like a man who returned from the moon Gotta be what it's like to return from the moon I've been traveling for a year or so I've been so far out baby you'll never know I really loved you like in another world But I'm back now and this is even worse And I feel like a man who returned from the moon Gotta be what it's like to return from the moon Now Alan Bean he fulfilled his greatest dream A step on the moon and his future was ruined Alan Bean and Pete and Rusty too They had nothing left they wanted to do Alan Bean had seen his life from above And what he felt It was stronger than love To Alan Bean life is not what it seems to be A step on the moon and life on earth is a dream Cause it's hard to return from a trip to the moon It's not a game to return from a trip to the moon You better take care of your dreams baby But if you touch them you'll never be the same Well I wanted to touch what I saw with my eyes Don't try to reach the moon if you don't want to realize It's so hard to return from a trip to the moon It's not a game to return from a trip to the moon |

You were at the hall one night
I saw it on his face I've seen you before Cause on his wall you left a trace There's a portrait of yours Hanging in his hallway still In his eyes a pain that will not fade I know it never will Some other town And other faces It's another story Some other time Leaving no traces It's another story Another story Another story You were selling paintings in a gallery in town He could not afford to buy one Yet he kept coming by Trust is hard although you do try It's easier to be true He said "I don't wanna watch things I can't buy No I want you" Some other town And other faces It's another story Some other town Leaving no traces It's another story Another story Another story I give him all my love I do Like he gave his to you You packed your clothes and things once Now I'm thinking of it too. There was a girl her eyes were blue He'd miss her when she'd gone There was a boy who'd die for you For anyone he'd want Some other town And other faces It's another story Some other time Leaving no traces It's another story Another story Another story girl |

... there she goes
Waiting for her love There she goes Waiting for her love There she goes waiting for the big surprise That'll change her world That'll change her world That'll change her world That'll change my world I know that I can't have you I know that you will never be mine I know that and that's why I choose you Cause this is real life ... See how I'm smiling Well you should be surprised cause I Used to get sad just by talking about him It's not that I forgot him Tonight he was here with me saying He'd changed his mind he decided to stay It's a dream There's no need to tell me so It's a dream Don't you think I know But I just never noticed That it could be this close From being dreaming to being alive From having nothing to having it all From being in love to being poor I skip that lipstick I don't care what I wear today My thoughts are with him When I walk out in the street People were staring Then I felt my face was wet I didn't notice I'd started to cry Im through with traveling I now now what I was after I stay right here now I've found What I searched for I know he doesn't love me No he doesn't care much Don't seem to stop him from killing me slowly A dream There's no need to tell me so Its a dream Don't you think I know But I just never noticed That it could be this close From being dreaming to being alive From having nothing to having it all From being in love to being poor |

To fight the battle between darkness and light
There he is sitting all alone ... He found the starry sky one night, a secret he will keep There is a house next to the station It's not abandoned anymore You see the lights up at the station Somebody's living there for sure No one's ever stayed inside up there till dawn arrives There was some damage to the spacecraft So now they're stuck in outer space Something went wrong down at the lift-off Two billion miles or more away "We'll send another capsule so they may be back in June ... " He lit a candle from the fireplace Sat on the floor and watched it breathe See the Lightkeeper finally found his place And he won't rise, won't fall asleep Our lives are lying there before us, awaiting So many ways to make it right And still they're all the same to me These stars all look the same And still they're all the same to me These days are all the same |

I've called you now a thousand times
I think I know now You're not home I've said your name a thousand times To be prepared if you'd be there I wanted so to have you And I wanted you to know I wanted to write songs About how we're walking in the snow You've got me slightly disappointed Just a bit and just enough To keep me up another night Waiting for another day The city's taking a day off The streets are empty No one's out tonight My life is in another's hands I wanted so to have you And I wanted you to know I wanted to write songs About how we're walking in the snow But there's no snow this winter There's no words for what I feel for you It's not enough Though it's too much Why must it always be like that? The TV screen is lighting up my room The film has ended Every inch of my skin is crying for your hands And I wanted so to have you And I wanted you to know I wanted to write songs About how we're walking in the snow You've got me slightly disappointed Just a bit and just enough To keep me up another night Waiting for another day |
