Mrs. Major Tom

You went up, so bright Tom

Thought my love was rocketing you along

When you didn't come back, and didn't come back

My nova heart collapsed to a black, black hole

Floating on sine waves in inner space

Awaiting a signal of grace

From ground control, to lost control

Ballet to battle, halo to hole

You were so far gone

Right was wrong, up was down

By going still further on

You hoped to come around

It was light years long

Dear husband Tom

At last back you've come

Yet still, you're gone

Floating on sine waves in inner space

Awaiting a signal of grace

From ground control, to lost control

Ballet to battle, halo to hole

I watched the skies, for all that time

And now your asteroid eyes

Say you were never mine

Never mine, never mine

Never, never mine

Floating on sine waves in inner space

Awaiting a signal of grace

From ground control, to lost control

Ballet to battle, halo to hole

You didn't burn up

My Major Tom

You just burnt out

You just burnt out
