“By Any Old Light”
caught myself lookin’ again
like i sometimes do
out the window at the bank parking lot
i look a little farther then i see
the light of the moon
shinin’ on me
(CHORUS)
and this intergalactic traveler
is stuck on the ground
the sound of the Earth
is a deafening sound
lookin’ at the moon
from way below
tends to bring me down
i’ve been stuck on this lonely rock
for years without end
i look at the space and then i see my face
i look a little farther then i see
the lights of my home
shinin’ on me
and this intergalactic traveler
is stuck on the ground
the sound of the Earth
is a deafening sound
lookin’ at the moon
from way below
tends to bring me down
(BRIDGE)
these people down here
are out for blood
they tell each other what to do
they don’t know how blind they seem
by any old light
or the light of the moon
and this intergalactic traveler
is stuck on the ground
the sound of the Earth
is a deafening sound
lookin’ at the moon
from way below
tends to bring me down
