Thought I Was A Spaceman Songtext / Lyric

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
