[Verse 1]
I always said when I’m gone, when I'm dead
Don’t lay me down with the dirt on my head
You won’t need a shovel, you don’t need a cold headstone
You don’t need to cry, I’m gon’ be going home[Chorus 1]
I’m waiting for my spaceship to come back to me, it’s coming back for me
I don’t really care if you believe, it’s coming back for me, yeah
I been living in a lonesome galaxy but in my dreams I see them come ‘n rescue me
Look up in the sky and there they’ll be, I bet you’ll think of me then
You’re gonna say, “Ooh-ooh, look at that, oh yeah-yeah”
Damn, if it ain’t true, they’re coming back for me, they’re coming [Cmaj7/B]back for me, yeah
[Verse 2]
I knew from the start I don’t belong in these parts
There’s too much hate, there’s too much hurt for this heart
Lord knows this planet feels like a hopeless place (hopeless place)
Thank God I’m going back home to outer space (outer space)
[Chorus 2]
I’m waiting for my spaceship to come back to me, it’s coming back for me
I don’t really care if you believe, it’s coming back for me, yeah
I been living in a lonesome galaxy but in my dreams I see them come ‘n rescue me
Look up in the sky and there they’ll be, I bet you’ll think of me then
You’re gonna say, “Ooh-ooh, look at that, oh yeah-yeah”
Damn, if it ain’t true, they’re coming back for me, they’re coming [Cmaj7/B]back for me, yeah
[Interlude]
Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Chorus 3]
I’m waiting for my spaceship to come back for me
And I don’t really care if you believe me
I been living in a lonesome galaxy but in my dreams I see them come ‘n rescue me
Look up in the sky and there they’ll be, I bet you’ll think of me then
You’re gonna say, “Ooh-ooh, look at that, oh yeah-yeah”
Damn, if it ain’t true, they’re coming back for me, they’re coming [Cmaj7/B]back for me, yeah
As I leave this earth and sail into the infinite cosmo of the universe
The wars, the triumphs, the beauty, and the bloodshed
The ocean of human endeavor, it all grows quiet
Insignificant, I’m nothing more
Than recycled stardust and borrowed energy, born from a rock spinning in the ether
I watch my life backwards and forwards
And I feel free, nothing is real, love is everything
And I know nothing
