[Verse 1] [fingerpicked acoustic guitar, melodic bass guitar] The galaxy is calling and it knows my name It ripples through time but it's all the same to me All the same to me (to me) [Verse 2] I knew deep in my heart that you were heaven sent A blessing from the gods when I was rent and torn Please stay a little while A fleeting broadcast from a different place Like you were the child of an alien race we don't know Oh we still don't know [Verse 3] An interstellar baby with a radio sound A fleeting whiz through the vacuum of space we found Yeah that we found [Chorus] The telescopes pointed into the sky The satellites of earth doing flybys in the hope To hear you again Oh please star child stay a little while We need you here to make us love and smile oh love Love a little more [Verse 4] A supermassive signal from up in space She's the center of this galactic race to the stars She's above us now The lights started flashing and the sirens were Most beautiful sounds that I ever heard she's here We can love again [Verse 5] A cosmic ray shining on my face A radio signal that's out of place in the void The void in our hearts [Verse 6] The jets all scrambled as she drew near The tanks all shifted into higher gear in fear Fear of what we don't know [Chorus] Oh please star child won't you stay a while We need you here to make us love and smile oh love Love a little more [Bridge] It was radio silence as the jets swooped in The gods will never smile for our mortal sin oh sin All love has gone [Chorus] The telescopes pointed into the sky The satellites of earth doing flybys in the hope To hear you again To hear you again [Outro] Just crackling silence on the radio We'll never know what you could have shown oh Lord For our mortal sin For our mortal sin
