If you happened to look in the sky
At 10:21 Thursday night
A crazy thing happened just south of the moon
A glimmer of coherent light
Now I canât say if it moved
From east to west or west to east
But Iâm pretty sure it moved and Iâm pretty sure it moved me
But oh, so far away
Too far to place my faith in tired eyes
But maybe you saw it too
If you did Iâm a little bit closer to you
Now I donât want to post to a blog
Or call up my rep in DC
Donât want anyone to confirm or deny
Or ruin this moment for me
Cause I canât say what it was
Or what to do or what I know
But Iâm pretty sure Iâm here and Iâm pretty sure youâre far away
And oh, so far away
Too far to place my faith in memory
But maybe you feel it too
If you do Iâm a little bit closer
Itâs only sixty miles until the edge of space
But I will never get there if I keep this earthly pace
For now Iâll stay on the ground
Watching the sun, feeling the spin
And find the perfect vantage point
Let the astral show begin
So if you happen to look at the sky
At 10:21 Monday night
Could be a comet or UFO
Or only the embers from long ago
But whatever you see Iâm pretty sure Iâll see it too
Oh, so far away
