Red hot steel and thunder, fast and raging
The steely arrow shoots into the night
Heading for the unknown into darkness
Well equiped to see the other side
Hold on, time is right to dig the lie
Watch out, the truth will come to light
The skids are touching ground, dying engine
You're climbing off, you're switching on the lights
You're walking on the moon, the world of silence
But it tells you all the secrets that it hides
Man on the moon, prowler of the night
Man on the moon, tell man the secrets that you hide
You see the ball of light, the steely saucer
They're watching you and every step you'll make
Your superiors they told you that's fiction
But what they said was nothing but a fake
So what's the point in sending out their spaceships
To look for something you should never find
Why they try to keep mankind away from knowledge
The cloven hoof is the secret that's behindOut in the city strees
Alone and weak from the cold and hunger,
Trembling hands unfold a photograph.
Mom and Dan and Ann Marie,
Smiles from a distant sunrise,
The only smile you've seen in days.
CHORUS
Come back to me
Come back my darlin'
Come back to me
Or I will fade away
Come back to me
Come back my darlin'
I still believe in you
My runaway.
Jesse and Willy Lee
Play in the street while their mother wonders,
"Why won't they listen to a word I say?"
I sing a lullaby
To the baby in my arms
And the laughter fades away.
CHORUS
Come back to me
Come back my darlin'
I'm sending hope
For the runaway
Somewhere a flash of light
Cuts through the night
Like a lighthouse callin'
All of the lost and forgotten.
I made a vow I will continue
'Till i find you.
I'll never stop, I'll never stop believein'
I will wait for you forever
Sending you Hope for the runaway.
