lyrics

He had something to confess
He was drinking more and eating less
You wake up in another country
And it feels funny and lonely

Now the days are so long
And the nights are too short
I’m looking thriugh my telescope
Searching for my home
I can see you sitting next to me
Smiling by my side
And I know you’re thinking of me tonight.

He looks down from above
Sends me spirit and love
You wake up in another galaxy
But you’re always watching over me

Now the days are so long
And the nights get so cold
I’m looking out my window
Waiting for you to come home
I can see you sitting next to me
Sleeping by my side
And I know you’re thinking of me tonight
I know you’re thinking of me tonight
