lyrics

Astrogirl you're needed in the earthbound world
I'm just about to lose my mind so come on home
I know you from yet another desperate time
Though I could never keep my head from out of the clouds
Hey we never get too far just sleeping
Seduced by the visions in our brains
You know me I've never been the one to smile
But anything you say I'll do I'm under your spell now
The fountain springs, Octobers in a wintry town
So anyplace that you might fly's where I want to go
Though we never gain our sense of meaning
We've longingly grasped at things unknown
Well lately I just can't shake the feeling
The moment you miss your chance it's gone
So I want to tell you astrogirl
You're needed in the earthbound world
I'm just about to lose my mind
Come on home
