Back on earth
In the morning, there's another town
Drinking her coffee after loving her all night long
With a hotel room where we touch down
But everyone around keeps acting strange
And I've tried my hardest not to change
Could there be another way, God, I love to sing and play
An ordinary man was sitting in the kitchen
And wondering when he's coming home
Where I'll face the situation's gravity
I shared my heart and the good Lord smiled
And I'm out in space here wondering if it's worth
An ordinary man was sitting in the kitchen
Back on earth
As I navigate the milky way, I contemplate the dues I pay
Hey, now look at me, I'm hanging with the stars
There's a brown-eyed baby
Back on earth
She's needing her daddy
And I thanked them all for being kind to me
There's a woman who's wishing
Everything I'm missing
Yeah, I'm up in space here wondering if it's worth
And the satellite relayed me this reply
Now I'm out in space here wondering if it's worth
There's a brown-eyed baby
Everything I'm missing
And back on earth
But I played the show and the crowd went wild
That's what I told her through the sound check noise in Kansas
People look at me like I'm a man from Mars
She's needing her daddy
Who's old enough now to tell me all the ways
Who's old enough now to tell me all the ways
Back on earth
There's a woman who's wishing
And wondering when he's coming home
Back on earth
Drinking her coffee after loving her all night long
Everything I'm missing
