Excuse me friend Can you tell me when Did I sign up for this race There's not an end And no one wins Yet you fight to keep the pace Maybe I'll find a home in the heavens Hitch a ride on a shooting star (Chorus) Leave this place for outer space We can rent a little house on Venus And get closer to the sun There's always light There is no night We can watch the earth revolve There's only friends And innocence, there'd no conflicts to resolve Leave behind everything you think matters Don't delay once you're there you will see (Chorus) Welcome aboard, get comfortable Your maiden journey's just begun Just close your eyes Enjoy the ride We're getting closer to the sun (Chorus) Excuse me friend Can you tell me when Did I sign up for this race
