Lyrics
the lonely journey that I took
was not learnt by the book
I left on a whim
without a note or a kiss
and all the places that I've seen
can't compare to what I saw
from my spaceship
I travelled to the moon
'cos I'd made a promise to you
that I would pick up a stone
from that old friend soon
the earth was just a speck of dust
and all my hopes turned to rust
when I realized I was lost in space
you know how I tend to drift away
I travelled to the moon
'cos I'd made a promise to you
that I would pick up a stone
from that old friend soon
I travelled to the moon
and I broke my promise to you
