Melancholy Astronautic Man

You're like a man
Alone in outer space,
Cradling the earth in the palm of his hands
You orbit 'round
Tempted by a face,
Beauty so alive, she leaves you spellbound

(Chorus)
Even the stars seem to burn for her
What a melancholy astronautic man,
You know that you're falling
Without place to land your heart
And you are worlds apart,
Even when she's in your arms

You say the things
You know will spark a laughter,
Marvel at the glow of the light that it brings
But getting close
Is it dark matter?
Forces are at work greater than you know

(Chorus)

Round and round and round
You go in circles
Round and round and round
You go in circles
Round and round and round
You go in circles

What a melancholy astronautic man,
You know that you're falling,
Without a place to land your heart
And you are worlds apart,
Even when she's in your arms

What a melancholy astronautic man,
You know that you're falling,
Without a place to land your heart
And you are worlds apart,
Even when she's in your arms
