You know I think it was born of the feeling That I got when I left from your home Then it turned into something appealing I Couldn’t let it alone
Who’d have known that I’d ever be reeling Simply from being on my own Oh I craved and I craved and I craved and I craved To get back that feeling I’d known
But the way you were looking that evening When you showed me out to your door Oh I felt like we’d both been caught stealing From the garden your parents had grown
It’s a long way from Earth to the heavens But I didn’t care anymore I just waited and waited and waited and waited Until I could get you alone
Who ever heard such a voice of excitement? No man alive had ever been there Staking a claim on an uncharted island Ooh it was too much to bear No man alive had ever been there
Well we didn’t make it together But I didn’t go it alone See the feeling was no longer tethered To the sweetheart it used to call home
Now we’re spread like a blanket of heather Covering soil and stone Oh it bid me to lay with a bird of a feather And then to set out on my own
Who ever heard such a voice of excitement? No man alive had ever been there Staking a claim on an uncharted island Ooh it was too much to bear No man alive had ever been there
Who ever heard such a voice of excitement? No man alive had ever been there Staking a claim on an uncharted island Ooh it was too much to bear No man alive had ever been there
I think it was born of the feeling That I got when I left from your home Oh I waited and waited and waited and waited To get back that feeling I’d known
