The dark of the sky ? the light of the moon The solitary figure will be home real soon He has braved the storms of time ? his life is on the line He?'s been prayin?' to his saviour Please take me away from here
The man on the ship - has a lot to fear He hasn?'t seen home - in almost a year
When darkness falls ? he goes by the stars Getting directions from Jupiter and Mars It was he who created this strife He is fighting for his life He is longing to see ? His wife and his family
CHORUS then SOLO
Well will things be the same ? When he gets home again Will his children still remember ? The man who went away The year that has gone past ? All the places he has been He?'ll remember to the last ? The worlds that he has seen
