Well I'm walking in these streets again
I'm back and it all looks the same
And I feel like a man who returned from the moon
Gotta be what it's like to return from the moon
I've been travelling for a year or so
I've been so far out baby you'll never know
I really loved you like in another world
But I'm back now, and this is even worse
And I feel like a man who returned from the moon
It's gotta be what it's like to return from the moon
Now Alan Bean he fulfilled his greatest dream
A step on the moon and his future was ruined
Alan Bean and Pete and Rusty too
they had nothing left that they wanted to do
Alan Bean had seen his life from above
And what he felt it was stronger than love
To Alan Bean life is not what it seems to be
A step on the moon and life on earth is a dream
Cause it's hard to return from a trip to the moon
It's not a game to return from a trip to the moon
You better take care of your dreams baby
But if you touch them you'll never be the same
Well I wanted to touch what I saw with my eyes
Don't try to reach the moon if you don't wanna realise
It's so hard to return from a trip to the moon
It's not a game to return from a trip to the moon
