Lyrics
We were just about to lose our home
Diamonds at the radio
Moving in the dead of night
We took photographs just some just so
History somewhat to know
We were moving at the speed of flight
(Kids cry)
If you
Want to
That's alright
If you
Want to
Hold me
Hold me tight
Just an alien
We were hovering without a home
Millions are UFO
Hovering in hope some scope tonight
Sees the light and says
Fly if you
Want to
That's alright
But if you
Want to
Call me
Call this line
Just an alien
Just an alien
Oh, we just wanna get home again
Tell your leader
Sir or ma'am
We come in peace
We mean no harm
Somewhere out there
In the unknown
All the E.T's are phoning home
Watching my life
On the skyline
Crossing your eyes
For a lifetime
Just an alien
Moving target
Target movement
A patch a corner
Of the spacetime
Turning toward it
Turning pages
Over Asia
Crossing ages
Just an alien
Oh, we just wanna get home again
