they say he's your cousin - the one who went astray
they say he's all foggy and a million miles away
he's your earth sized twin, he's your brother in arms
your relative, your soul-mate, the heir to all your charms
you gave us all you had to give - as a good mother would
we ravished all your treasure coves, took everything we could
burned your meadows, slayed your sheep, torn you from pole to pole
slashed your beauty, took your breath and vandalized your soul
guess I'm gone
a new sun is dawning
long long gone
no use in calling
I'll be gone
a billion flightmiles all-in
guess I'm gone - forever...
the stars are always brighter on the other side of space
wish I could hug you one more time and leave without a trace
there's nothing left to take from you, it's time to say goodbye
my final farewell is this song, your dirge, your lullaby
---------
but you are not alone
you are not alone, love…
they have found another you
another earth - so don't feel blue
my love
the stars are always brighter on the other side of space
wish I could hug you one more time and leave without a trace
there's nothing left to take from you, it's time to say goodbye
my final farewell is this song, your dirge, your lullaby
