There's a lonesome planet that I know
Where the earth is a spinning mystic land
As I must watch you far below.

Here a callow moon spills a silvered glow
And I hold moonbeams in my hand
There's a lonesome planet that I know

Where wishes melt like springtime snow
When I can't hold onto the falling sand
As I must watch you far below

The blues of twilight ebb and flow
As starlight twinkles on earthly land
There's a lonesome planet that I know

Where the winds of love refuse to blow
And I am destined to forever stand
As I must watch you far below

Once again I see your shadow fade and go
And the pain of longing more than I can stand
There's a lonesome planet that I know
Where I must watch you far below
