The Last Cosmonaut Lyrics

As a child I'd look to the stars

Imagining what was beyond what my eyes could see

And now I'm floating here, alone in outer space

I'm resigned to my fate, all I can do is look out and say

From up here, the world, it seems so still and beautiful

The stars so bright, like distant lanterns in a midnight sky

I wish that I could share it with you

I hope this message reaches you

I'd hate you to think that I wasn't ready to go

It breaks my heart to say goodbye to you this way

But this sacrifice, I'd do it again any day

From up here, the world, it seems so still and beautiful

The stars so bright, like distant lanterns in a midnight sky

I'll live forever in the night bathing serenely amongst the cosmos

Drifting here, all on my own, I'm finally at peace

I wish that I could share it with you

God knows how I'll miss seeing your face, your passionate embrace

Your sapphire eyes will fade from my mind but the honest truth is that

I'll always love you

I'll always love you

When you look up at the night sky

Picture me smiling down at you

From up here, the world, it seems so still and beautiful

The stars so bright, like distant lanterns in a midnight sky

I'll live forever in the night bathing serenely amongst the cosmos

Drifting here, all on my own, I'm finally at peace

I wish that I could share it with you
