The song likens being cut off from a loved one to sending them into space for a long time.
lyrics
You belong somewhere, elsewhere.
Are you nearing propulsion?
Never saw it coming.
Did we know it would happen?
Step inside and I’ll step aside now.
It’s for the best, yes the best, all right now.
Did we see it coming?
Never thought it would happen.
Taking a break, while I wait in the wings,
looking onward, beyond.
Feeling a jolt as I bolt to the cold,
looking backward.
Couldn’t explain why I couldn’t refrain
from not standing stock still.
Cumbersome, numb, and then some
I’m jumping the line.
Line.
7000 hours.
7000 hours.
7000 hours.
You belong somewhere elsewhere.
Getting ready for takeoff.
Could we just stay longer?
7000 hours?
Gonna miss me when I’m gone, I think.
Take a minute, remember, have a drink.
Not about me this time, no, no, no.
See ya in 7000 hours or so.
Taking a break, while I wait in the wings,
looking onward, beyond.
Feeling a jolt as I bolt to the cold,
looking backward.
Couldn’t explain why I couldn’t refrain
from not standing stock still.
Cumbersome, numb, and then some
I’m jumping the line.
Line...
