[Verse 1]
I just got to nineteen I thought
I'd build a rocket ship take off and
All my problems would be gone
Spent my days on plans and framework
Left you in the dust, so self-involved
You're right and I was wrong
[Chorus]
And now it seems I'm stuck on the moon
Scared to think I lost my way to you
I ran away from all I've ever known
Now I'm an astronaut who misses home
[Verse 2]
I count the stars to keep me sane
I try to find them names but it's unmatched
To hold you and to have
Today I saw the great unknown but only felt alone
Wish you could see
You would've made it glow
[Chorus]
But now it seems I'm stuck on the moon
And no amount of counting gives me you
Got scared and thought that I could be alone
Now I'm an astronaut who misses home
I'm an astronaut who misses home
[Bridge]
(Ooh)
I'd beg for you to take me back but you're too good to give me that so I won't
Don't wanna do you harm so I'll admire from afar if that's what you want
(Ooh)
[Outro]
Who knows if I could make it up to you
I'm far from home and from deserving to
I'll admire from afar if that's all that I can do
'Cause I'm an astronaut who misses you
I'm an astronaut who misses you
