Is it in your eyes, the light from all the stars
Is it something that I said?
Did you get the message on your radio
Did you hear it in your head?
You said gravity was pulling you down
You said "Nothing like the sun."
Can I get inside your head and turn you round
Can I ask you what you've done?
Well I hope that you remember me
Out there in your galaxy
Where I won't be
Maps of Mars
Are hanging in your room
And I know you must be leaving
Wave goodbye
As you travel 'cross the Moon
But don't forget to come back to me
'Cause it's cold out there
Past the atmosphere
And so I'll stare,
While I'm waiting here,
Into the sun to find you
If I wandered after you and tracked you down
If I followed you away
Would you recognize me out among the stars
Would you tell me I could stay
Well I hope that you remember me
Out there in your galaxy
Where I won't be
Maps of Mars
Are hanging in your room
And I know you must be leaving
Wave goodbye
As you travel 'cross the Moon
But don't forget to come back to me
Don't forget to come back to me
Don't forget
