Text: Patti Smith. Radio Ethiopia. Distant Fingers.
When, when will you be landing?
When, when will you return?
Feel, feel my heart expanding
You and your alien arms
All my earthly dreams are shattered
I'm so tired, I quit
Take me forever, it doesn't matter
Deep inside of your ship
La, la, la, la, la, la, landing
Please, oh, oh, won't you return?
Feel, see your blue lights are flashing
You and your alien arms
Deep in the forest I whirl like I did as a little girl
Let my eyes rise in the sky looking for you
Oh, you know, I would go anywhere at all
'Cause no star is too far with you, with you
La, la, la, la, la, la, landing
Please, oh, oh, won't you return?
Feel, feel my heart expanding
You and your alien arms
All my earthly dreams are shattered
I'm so tired, I quit
Take me forever, it doesn't matter
Deep inside of your ship
Land, land
Oh, I am waiting for you
Oh, I am waiting for you
Oh, I am waiting for you
Waiting for you to take me up by my starry spine
Oh, oh, with your distant fingers
Oh, I'm waiting for you, waiting for you
Oh, I am waiting for you
When, when will you return?
Feel, feel my heart expanding
You and your alien arms
All my earthly dreams are shattered
I'm so tired, I quit
Take me forever, it doesn't matter
Deep inside of your ship
La, la, la, la, la, la, landing
Please, oh, oh, won't you return?
Feel, see your blue lights are flashing
You and your alien arms
Deep in the forest I whirl like I did as a little girl
Let my eyes rise in the sky looking for you
Oh, you know, I would go anywhere at all
'Cause no star is too far with you, with you
La, la, la, la, la, la, landing
Please, oh, oh, won't you return?
Feel, feel my heart expanding
You and your alien arms
All my earthly dreams are shattered
I'm so tired, I quit
Take me forever, it doesn't matter
Deep inside of your ship
Land, land
Oh, I am waiting for you
Oh, I am waiting for you
Oh, I am waiting for you
Waiting for you to take me up by my starry spine
Oh, oh, with your distant fingers
Oh, I'm waiting for you, waiting for you
Oh, I am waiting for you
