alien afternoon
Woke up in the morning staggered out of bed Thought about getting back again, but went downstairs instead Read the daily paper have to know the truth Slammed the door as I ran outside, looked at my watch and cried Gotta get to work on time Gotta get to work on time Then the sky turned a deeper blue Not a cloud as the sun shone through But all around rain kept falling to the ground The wind was blowing but the trees didn't make a sound Just another alien afternoon Just another alien afternoon Time that I was leaving while there's still a chance Before I start believing in what I see or hear Nothing here to keep me, nothing anywhere Gotta get out pack my bags before I go insane Gotta get away in time Gotta get away in time Then the sky turned from blue to green Took on colours I have never seen Then a sound started ringing in my ears I heard voices but in truth there's nobody there Just another alien afternoon Just another alien afternoon To be there back where I belong To feel again the wind upon my face To see again all that I took for granted All that I left and everything I knew We are home We are your home We are all your home Not another alien afternoon Never more to go wandering Never leaving my world behind There was never a reason To leave my heart and my home behind Where I was born is where I should be now I would never be lonely I would never be sad again I wanted to go anywhere I wanted to see how strange it all could be Nothing would ever take me away again Never more to go wandering Never leaving my world behind No, no, no, no Nothing will ever take me away again, away again No, no, no, no.
