Closer To The Moon Coming back with my mates on a plane We been to London we been to Spain And Amsterdam Oh what Uncle Sam dont know wont hurt him. Such a long strange trip it's been I wouldent change it for anything And who know when We'll ever do this again And baby baby have you been cleaning out the birdhouse And baby baby we been hopping off bridges and hangin form clouds Thirty Thousand feet above you doesent mean i dont love you Im just a little closer to the moon Use to think everybody else was so much cooler than myself But i wouldent trade what i got cause what i got cant be bought Nobody owns anybody i know Dont collect 200 dont pass go And maybe we diddent make a dime But diddent we have a good time Aand baby baby baby you been Perfecting perfect solitude And baby baby baby i been Working on my attitude Thirty Thousand feet above you Doesent mean i dont love you Im just a little closer to the moon And i can see im gonna miss you all Along the way Save some champine at the reunion ball Maybe when were old and gray Coming back with my mates on a plane back to the amber waves of grain Im the luckiest guy on earth These skys are about to give birth Black Tornado not today Were do we sit in the milky way I gotta say it could be worst than Spinning round the universe And baby baby baby you been
