Lyrics
[Intro] (Are you ready, 199?) (It's time to leave for planet Earth) [Verse 1] For many days, we traveled From a distant place and time To reach a place they call the planet Earth There was to be a celebration On the mission of the Sacred Heart [Verse 2] The planet Earth from way up there Is beautiful and blue And floating softly through a rainbow But when you touch down Things look different here At the mission of the Sacred Heart [Chorus] Watching all the days roll by Who are you and who am I? [Post-Chorus] Whеn all the stars above Lay icy fingers down on mе [Verse 3] On a dirty, worn-out sidewalk Sits a mother with a baby In her veil of tears, she sees no rainbow And someone's singing from a window In the mission of the Sacred Heart [Chorus] Watching all the days roll by Who are you and who am I? [Post-Chorus] (System not yet found) And when the stars above Lay icy fingers down on me (All systems fail) [Verse 4] There's a building on a corner In a city, in a land On a place they call the planet Earth My orders are to sit here And watch the world go by The mission of the Sacred Heart [Chorus] Watching all the days roll by Who are you and who am I? Watching all the days roll by Who are you and who am I? [Outro] (How's life on Earth?)
