One thousand miles to the earth below

Achieving orbit and ready to go

We get the signal to start our flight

Now we're headed out across

the void of endless night

Long Distance Love Affair

Trace the signals through the air

And shout his name to the empty sky

You wait in the rain but there's no reply

He looks down from high on heaven

and says goodbye

How many years since you've seen his face

She lost her lover to the human race

She waited patiently but he never came

And they don't known if they're

ever gonna see him again

[Repeat chorus]

She looks out across the heavens

and wonders why

Is anybody out there? Can anybody hear me?

Is anybody listening? Is there anybody out there?

He looks out across the heavens and starts to cry

[Repeat chorus]

She looks out across the heavens

and starts to cry
