I´m an astronaut Lyrics

Journeying in the void of space

Twenty ninety-nine, a lonely place

Working on my research, day and night

Cooking meals in artificial light

Looking out the window, exploring stars

Your face a memory, blurring like old scars

I float through silence, endless sky

Your memory's my beacon, way up high

I wonder how you spend your days

As I chart these unknown ways

I keep on thinking about you

But your features blur, it's true

I drift through the infinite black

Each second pulling me further away

I´m feeling blue, 'cause the echoes stay

I'm an astronaut

I wake up early, greet the day

Work and home, I make my way

I cook my meals and gaze at stars

It's been years since you passed Mars

I think of you, my constant care

But your face is fading, it's so unfair

I hold on tight to the love we knew

Through daily tasks, my heart stays true

I look to heavens, search the night

Hoping to see your spaceship's light

Though your face is slowly slipping away

My love for you will never sway

I drift through the infinite black

Each second pulling me further away

I´m feeling blue, 'cause the echoes stay

I'm an astronaut

Counting stars, counting days, just waiting

Only 22 years left

I drift through the infinite black

Each second pulling me further away

Feeling so blue, 'cause the echoes stay

I'm an astronaut

Lightyears apart, but not alone - I'm just an astronaut
