[Verse 1] 93 million miles from the Sun, people get ready, get ready 'Cause here it comes it's a light, a beautiful light, over the horizon into our eyes Oh, my my how beautiful, oh my beautiful mother She told me, "Son in life you're gonna go far, if you do it right you'll love where you are Just know, wherever you go, you can always come home"
[Chorus] Ohh, ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh, ohh
[Verse 2] 240 thousand miles from the Moon, we've come a long way to belong here To share this view of the night, a glorious night, over the horizon is another bright sky Oh, my my how beautiful, oh my irrefutable father He told me, "Son sometimes it may seem dark, but the absence of the light is a necessary part Just know, you're never alone, you can always come back home"
[Chorus] Ohh, ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh, ohh You can always come back, back
[Bridge] Every road is a slippery slope There is always a hand that you can hold on to Looking deeper through the telescope You can see that your home's inside of you
[Chorus] Just know, that wherever you go, no you're never alone, you will always get back home Ohh, ohh, ohh Ohh, ohh, ohh
[Outro] 93 million miles from the Sun, people get ready, get ready 'Cause here it comes it's a light, a beautiful light, over the horizon into our eyes
