Lyrics
I'm caught in your orbit. I feel you pulling me in.
ETA to atmosphere? I really couldn't say.
Faster than the speed of sound, I'm still light years away.
I'm lost in your orbit. I feel you pulling me in.
I, just like some meteor, bend down to touch yur face.
You reach up with your earth's hands, pulling me out of space.
Men will stand on the edge of this collision we have made.
And years from now they'll look down, scratching their heads, saying,
"what happened here?"
Ah, but that's just some dream. I have no power over you.
And years from now I'll realize I'm no closer than
the stratosphere.
I long for your orbit. I feel you letting me go.
Like a comet I pass by. I never will return.
You look up with your earth's eye, watching me as I burn.
