Welcome back to earth my fine young lucky southern son
|
How was your trip to outer-space it sure did look like fun
|
You seem somewhat puzzled like you just can't readjust
|
You're covered in the battle scars and pitted up with rust
|
|
And your mom and dad have missed you and I'm sure your friends agree
|
There's no substitute for solitude and anonymity
|
|
Chorus:
|
I'm just coming down from this cloud ahead
|
World was spinning around the voices echo things that she said
|
I'm just coming down from this starry sky
|
I'm just glad to be here and most of all I'm thankful I'm alive
|
|
I hear the whispers in the crowd from jealous tongues
|
Shadows from the shameful light my ego's come undone
|
And your dignity has missed you and I'm sure your soul agrees
|
This fire sale has cost you your pace and sanity
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
The path that I must take will lead me to despair
|
When I'm a million miles away will no one even care
|
|
[Chorus]
|

Coming Down
