I am an astronaut and I'm probably not the kind of guy you thought you'd see here
But I, I've seen the whole world and never a girl that looked like you
So I took a rocket here and magically appeared before you in a blaze of smoke & flame
And all I want to know's your name, and can I take you to the moon today?
'Cause it gets awful lonely up in space
And I could do with seeing someone else's face
Discovering each other in a brand new place
Yes it's true, you could be an astronaut too
I'll take a trip to Mars and I'll steal the stars to paint a picture of a different point of view
Then lay, gazing up at the earth, and know what it's worth to be loved by you
And you'll wear that dress that we made from the Milky Way and pearls from Venus that we found beneath the sand
We'll float back down, but before we land, I'll slip a ring from Saturn on your hand
'Cause it gets awful lonely up in space
And I could do with seeing someone else's face
Discovering each other in a brand new place
Yes it's true, you could be an astronaut too
