Letra de ' Light Years From Home ' de Lacy J. Dalton

Light years and light years from home
Light years and light years from home

In the arctic sea, there lives a whale
The oldest whale on earth
His hide's tattooed with scars from the harpoon
He's more afraid than angry
But you know for what it's worth,
I'll bet he prays the starships will come soon

In the land down under, an aborigine
Stares into the beep blue vault of space
He wanders in the dreamtime
Communing with the stars
They tell him it's high time to leave this place

'cause out beyond the pleiades
Behind the warmest stars
There are places free and lovely
Where the other brothers are
And they know we're out here tryin'
To make it on our own

Light years and light years from home
Light years and light years from home

They say old jack's gone crazy
But he's planned well for the trip
In that little airstream trailer all alone
Way out in nevada waiting for the mothership
He says they're gonna' come and take him home

And somewhere on some quiet night
A strange light will appear
That moves like nothing ever made by man
And even though it scares me
I hope that i'm still here
The day the mighty starships come to land

'cause out beyond the pleiades
Behind the warmest stars
There are places free and lovely
Where the other brothers are
And they know we're out here tryin'
To make it on our own

Light years and light years from home
Light years and light years from home
