The blur out the side window The smoke of the diesel billows And I'm all alone with the road The next rest stop is 30 miles There's no one on channel one To take my call cause I've left them all Out on my own without a home And I won't smile for 30 miles I turn down the squelch And forget what I've felt I'm all alone with the road The next rest stop is 30 miles There's no one on channel one To take my call cause I've left them all Out on my own without a home And I won't smile for 30 miles

2010, the year he left earth Since then, no one has heard From him, no contact at all Earth and sky have disappeared And all that's left is dark and fear He's the astronaut in the solo craft He's regretting his choice to volunteer Spinning circles in an asteroid belt Is not what he would prefer Left alone, cold but still alive Only hope, is left behind his eyes If he copes, it will spell his demise Constellations passing by Without wings but still he flies Constellations passing by Without wings but still he flies He's the astronaut in the solo craft He's regretting his choice He's the astronaut in the solo craft He's regretting his choice to volunteer Spinning circles in an asteroid belt Is not what he would prefer

The crowd at the downtown park were on their feet The roar rose up and peaked as their hero stepped out 38 years old but it seemed like yesterday That he was new to field, this team, & to all these fans And where did the time run off to, I don't remember You were so young, I had your rated rookie card I left all that behind, I'm not the guy that I once was Emotionally blind, buried in imagination Turn away from a past that never leaves you And please don't stay in the same circles that keep you And I'll delay, because I'm scared of being no one And where did the time run off to, I don't remember You were so young, I had your rated rookie card Turn away from a past that never leaves you And please don't stay in the same circles that keep you I left all that behind, I'm not the guy that I once was Emotionally blind, buried in imagination Turn away from a past that never leaves you And please don't stay in same circles that keep you Turn away from a past that never leaves you And please don't stay in the same circles that keep you And I'll delay, because I'm scared of being no one The crowd at the downtown bar were in their seats The roar rose up and peaked as the zero stepped out 28 years old but it seemed like yesterday That he was new to this scene, this deal, and to all these fans
