lyrics

I listen to the countdown
Slowly getting further
Slowly getting further away
I can feel the moment
Slowly getting closer
Slowly getting closer now
My work will not be done ‘til I return
The shadows to the sun

Moonwalker, leaving footprints in the grey dust
I contemplate the moment
I wonder if I might be cursed this night or blessed
And I imagine that she’s sleeping
Far away and softly breathing
As the light pours down from the curtains onto her skin
Then into sacred rivers fall
And from the minarets they call

Moonwalker, Moonwalker, Moonwalker
I’m not the same man, there on the ground
Fighting gravity was only bringing me down

So I think I’m gonna stay here
You can go on back without me
I’m gonna miss you, but I think it’s for the best
Until it’s time
For you to write upon my grave something inspired
You could lie and say that he was satisfied
I kind of wish I was
And so I’m signing off in space
Will they remember me this way?

Moonwalker, Moonwalker, Moonwalker
I’m not the same man, there on the ground
Fighting gravity was only bringing me down
