spaceship earth (lyrics)

stranger, you speak to me with only your smile
smile…how wonderful…
all around the world, we speak with only a smile
different colors, different clothes, man woman and child

(*i can read facial expressions like nobody’s business*)

you wear a purple coat, you live in the  west
tell me everything

fight battles everyday to find out who’s best
when the victory is won, then we shall crown the new king

spaceship earth, blasting past stars
mercury, venus, saturn, and mars
climb on the ship and abandon your cars
need a ticket to heaven, and this one is ours

feed me and comfort, lend your helping hand
lord, how i need you
nourish my body for the ultimate stand
we must protect one another as we enter the land

the day that i lost you, i just couldn’t go on
how will i make it now?
the pain that you suffered, i will bear twice as long
but you can’t feel, so i can’t stay, and i must carry on

searching for love inside an alien world
a home to rest my weary bones
you’re in a better place, a shell for the  pearl
as i journey towards the sunshine with the golden earth girl

the wind blows behind our backs and pushes us north
over my shoulder
i choose my destiny and set my own course
with some luck and with some love, i will be granted the force
