Thought I Was a Spaceman

I thought I was a spaceman Digging out my heart In some distant sand dunes in a car park Because the desert has encroached moon The places where we lived And people like me fight to keep the demons in But we never succeeded We never succeeded In fact, we failed I thought I was a spaceman Digging out my heart In some distant sand dunes in a car park By the empty harbour Where the junk boat phantoms float The fight for Happy Valley Sadly, the line broke Thought I'd found my black box Washed up on the shore On outlying islands past the landfall Thought I thought I'd found it But that was not true at all I'd walked into a bar and raised hell Cut the chasm out me Always and always the same Put the ghost in writing And let it be (you again) I thought I was a spaceman Digging out my heart In some distant sand dunes in Hyde Park I thought I was a spaceman Digging out my heart In some distant sand dunes you again I thought I was a spaceman Digging out my heart In some distant sand dunes you again You again You again
