I see my future there
Through the halos of despair
On a slow ascending glide

When we broke from orbit with our lives unfurled
Did you turn around and see the big blue world
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
We're riding horses on the moon

Parents die
Friends get old
Borrowed time is later sold
Empty-handed on we climb

It's in the face of fear we fly
And with the grace of you go I
While you're eyes are tungsten chimes

Even when you're old you never really seem old
Even when you've turned and seen the big blue world
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
We're riding horses

It's such a long way down
Shifting dots on the serpentine ground
Live and let live
Just let's go, let's just go

Even when you go you never really get to go
Even when you turn and see the big blue world
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
We're riding horses
On the moon
