Letra Back on planet earth Ayreon

Back on planet earth

Roger copy!
Altitude 4200, and you are go for landing, over!
Visibility, as we said before, is... not too great.
Come in!
Planet Earth... Planet Earth... Planet Earth... Planet Earth...
EDWARD REEKERS:
I overheard the elders,
Telling each other stories
About the days when they were young,
Back on planet earth
I wish to learn the secrets
Of those who lived before me...
So I program my computer,
For a flight to planet earth
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
Blue skies over the oceans
Sail on the wind to the valley below..
Rise high over the hills
To where the wildflowers grow
OKKIE HUYSDENS:
And I ride, ride, ride,
The waves of time!
Fly, fly, fly beyond the sky!
EDWARD REEKERS:
We've abandoned all emotions,
Whether good or bad,
Up here in this station,
Far from planet earth!
I can't tell if I'm happy,
I don't know if I'm sad
But I do know I'd have been at home,
Back on planet earth.
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
Black clouds over the debris,
Storm is raging over the land...
No life left on this planet,
Now you will understand!
OKKIE HUYSDENS:
And I ride, ride, ride,
The waves of time!
Fly, fly, fly beyond the sky!
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
Blue skies over the oceans
Sail on the wind to the valley below...
Rise high over the hills,
To where the wildflowers grow
Black clouds over the debris,
Storm is raging...
