the astronaut

hey, don't cry for me

don't be afraid
i'll be okay
soon i'm walking on air

without a care
i'm leaving today


don't try to keep me
by holding me down
don't try to tell me

i'm meant for the ground
i am an astronaut
sailing the stars

the moon is where i left my heart

i've tried to follow the crowd

got trapped in a cage
i had to escape
coz this world was never for me

i was born to fly free
there's no other way


i hold the earth in my hand
all that i am
what's given to me


although i am shaking
i trust in the hope

that someday you'll find me
in your telescope
i am an astronaut

sailing the stars
the moon is where i left my heart
tonight is where everything starts
