Hello Sam
I've been watching you
Stamping on your toys
Trying to make out a message
Straining through all the noise
Girls in red dresses
With long flowing tresses
And clowns holding hands
Searching around you
'Cause right here you know
No one understands
Take a look at the lawman
Flying high on a leap of faith
Is the world around you really here
If you can't feel alive?
Maybe this is the make believe
Does it matter anyway?
All the questions left unanswered
As you take the final dive?
Is there life on Mars?
Goodbye Sam
You were always trapped
It was such a crime
Hanging there in the morning air
Caught between two times
Things were just never
The same or whatever
Since you got back
Nothing makes sense
And you know it won't ever
Till you skip that final track
Take a look at the lawman
Flying high on a leap of faith
Is the world around you really here
If you can't feel alive?
Choose the real or the make believe
As the music fades away
Falling through the darkness till
You find the way back toward the light
Is there life on Mars?
And you told her that you'd never leave her
It's a promise you don't want to break
But if one isn't real and the other's a dream
From which one do you want to wake?
Take a look at the lawman
Flying high on a leap of faith
Is the world around you really here
If you can't feel alive?
Which is real, which is make believe?
Does it matter anyway?
Leave the questions all unanswered
As you take the final dive
Is there life on Mars?
Is there life on Mars?
Is there life on Mars?
