When I stand before you shining with the early morning sun When I feel the engines roar and I think of what we've done Oh, the bittersweet reflection as we kiss the earth goodbye As the waves and echoes of the towns become the ghosts of time Over borders that divide the earth by tribes No freedom, no religion, just a hundred winged souls We will ride these thunderbirds, sail the shadows on the earth A thousand leagues away, our land abounds So I'll be at last coming home When I see the runway lights and the misty dawn My mind is fading fast Coming home far away as the vapor trails align Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay Curving on the edge of daylight till it slips into the void Waited in the long night dreaming till the sun is born again Stretch the fingers of my hand, cover countries with my span Just a lonely satellite, a speck of dust and cosmic sand Over borders that divide the earth by tribes Oh, the dark atlantic of our moon is storming waves We will ride these thunderbirds, sail the shadows on the earth A thousand leagues away, our land abounds So I'll be at last coming home When I see the runway lights and the misty dawn My mind is fading fast Coming home far away as the vapor trails align Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay Oh, the dark atlantic of our moon is storming waves We will ride these thunderbirds, sail the shadows on the earth A thousand leagues away, our land abounds So I'll be at last coming home So I'll be at last coming home When I see the runway lights and the misty dawn My mind is fading fast Coming home far away as the vapor trails align Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay Coming home far away when I see the runway lights and the misty dawn My mind is fading fast Coming home far away as the vapor trails align Where I've been tonight, you know I will not stay Thank you for watching!
