Earth Staffell lyrics

I might be at a table
And suddenly I`ll catch
A fleeting vision of her crystal seas
Or I might be standing in a crowded dockyard faraway
Beneath the sun I`ve never seen
`Cos I have seen many worlds
For what it`s worth
But I`ll never see again
The planet earth
My earth
I might be chasing waves of light
Out towards the grim
Where stars are sparse
And the cold of space seeps in
But I might be in a barroom
Drinking menthylated gin
And thinking of places I have been

Yes I have seen many worlds
For what it`s worth
But I`ll never see again the planet earth
My earth

Cast adrift amongst the stars
I float from sun to sun
Dreaming of the world that gave me birth
All the places I have been
Remind me there is none to match the green living hills of earth
