It's a little bit funny this feeling inside I'm not one of those who can easily hide I don't have much money but boy if I did I'd buy a big house where we both could live She packed my bags last night pre-flight Zero hour nine AM And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then I miss the earth so much I miss my blue jean baby It's lonely out in LA, lady On such a timeless flight I know it's not much but it's the best I can do My gift is my song and this one's for you Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind That I put down in words And I think it's gonna be a long long time 'Till touch down brings me round again to find I'm not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no, I'm a rocket man Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone How wonderful life is while you're in the world
