Earth Out Tonight

Such a pretty planet coming back from the moon
 It's like seeing your old lover walk into a room
 And it feels like going home
 Feels as though I've flown a million miles
 I came out here in '92 to have a look around
 And it took awhile before I felt my feet on solid ground
 Well, the pay was really good
 I never thought I would be going home
 There's an earth out tonight
 Shining big and bright
 Blue and green and white in a velvet sky
 And something in this earthlight makes me cry
 It's not so loud, not so crowded here as it is back home
 Some men never have a chance to be alone
 Well, I thought I would forget her if I only got away
 And I never thought this love of mine was really gonna stay
 Now I'm staring at that world
 Where I know my girl must be laughing
 And there's an earth out tonight (Tonight)
 Shining big and bright
 Blue and green and white in a velvet sky
 There's an earth out tonight (Earth out tonight)
 Shining big and bright (See it shine)
 Blue and green and white in a velvet sky
 And something in this earthlight makes me cry
 And something in this earthlight makes me cry
