I'm your neighborhood spaceman
You don't know who I am, or where I've been
Circling like a satellite, a signpost in the sky
Look at me
I'm really just a tambourine
The world is shaking me, so listen
'Cause now I'm gonna sing, I'm coming home
You'll hear my song through the galaxy
By the time this light has reached your eyes
A world has lived and died, but we're here
Time and space are landing right where we're standing
Open up your hand and something good will happen
Drinking from the sun, we've found a whole new planet
Stars align a thousand times, that old black magick
When no one is looking
Ain't gonna shut my mouth and I'm cryin' out
When no one is looking
Under your balcony singin' the serenade
When no one is looking
I swallow thunder clouds, I kiss the hollow ground
When no one is looking
I eat the desert sand and drink the rio grande
When no one is looking
I'm crying raindrops and chewing mountain tops
When no one is looking
I break another rhyme and I'm stopping time
I'm your neighborhood spaceman
And your breath is moving through me
On the surface of this moon,
I can say to you, "It's okay"
Somebody inside of us
Makes this joy a must
Then we'll be knee-deep in ecstasy
No gravity to hold us down again
We're free
A thousand light years from this place
I see the look on your face, and I'm there
Time and space are landing right where we're standing
Open up your hand and something good will happen
Drinking from the sun, we've found a whole new planet
Stars align a thousand times, that old black magick
When no one is looking
I'm gonna buckle down, I'm gonna hit the ground
When no one is looking
I got to understand I'm back on earth again
When no one is looking
I pull my car around 'cause I'm leaving town
When no one is looking
I'm just your rocket man, I've seen the light again
I'll never give up
I'll never let you down I'll bring you the crown
I'm opening up
But on the other hand, I wanna be the man
I'll never give up
I'll never let you down I'll bring you the crown
And I'm courageous enough
But on the other hand, I'm outta here, my friend
