Out Among The Stars


I see lost and lonely people

Riding in their cars

Going nowhere - killing time

Locked behind bars

I wish they could be free like me

Looking down on Mars

Spinning round the universe

Out among the stars


Way back in the mist of time

I used to be like you

Running fast - losing ground

Doing what you do

I knew there was an answer

I couldn't put my finger on

Lost with no direction

No place to belong


If you want to know the truth

Who and what you are

You'll have to come and fly with me

Out among the stars


You look around - you search in vain

An answer you must find

It isn't out there in the world

It must be in your mind

Going crazy - screaming mad

Locked inside your head

Look into your heart my friend

It might be there instead


Time has no beginning

It surely has no end

There is no heaven waiting

Just around the bend

If you want to know the truth

Who and what you are

You'll have to come and fly with me

Out among the stars
