Skyfall

(album: Helloween - 1985)

Skyfall

I fell from the sky
So don't ask me why
I'm feeling so down

Watching the stars falling down from the sky in the night
Crashing from out of the heavens, they're burning so bright
Descend through the atmosphere, glowing with fiery light
Dragging a tail of white sparkles, and oh what a sight

Oh, where did I go, how could I know
Defies all reason now

I fell from the sky
So don't ask me why
I'm feeling so down
Attacked, shot down and wrecked
There's no turning back
To find my way home

A signal sent out of distress, I was heeding the call
Then they appeared and attacked me, my ship took the fall
Now I am strapped to the table, they're poking my eyes
I only hope I would came out of this, still alive

Oh, where did I go, how could I know
Give me a reason now

I fell from the sky
So don't ask me why
I'm feeling so down
Attacked, shot down and wrecked
There's no turning back
To find my way home

Hey, little alien, little grey
Where's the place your people stay?
Have you found a place beyond
Where eternity moves on?
Let me detach you, Help me find
What goes on in your captor's mind
For eternity awaits on the brink of our escape

We're twisting, we're turning
We're running, we're burning
Out on the run through the maze
On through the madness, no time for sadness
And no one can show us the way
Through Hangar 18
The tension now grows, We're getting so close
Enter the ship, start the engine and open the gates
Of Hangar 18
Onwards to the sky
The stars are bright, they'll shine forever
On and on we fly so far away

Hey, little alien
What have they done to you?
Is this your planet home?
I see what's wrong with you
It's all destroyed and burned
To ashes all reduced
Are there survivors here
Or have they all just disappeared?

I fell from the sky
So don't ask me why
I'm feeling so down
Attacked, shot down and wrecked
There's no turning back
To find my way home

The dark, the fear of the night
And the pain settles down deep within
Coming home to a place still unknown
And the hope as I dream is undying

When the sky falls, and the world you know comes crashing down
When the sky falls, and everything is changing
Changes came across the sky
Welcome to the other side, and everything is changing
When the sky falls, When the sky falls
We're just two aliens, Lost without a home
We travel on, we see the light
Another star, another fight
Onwards through the universe
To find a home, to break the curse
Stars on the horizon, Stars on the horizon
Come and take us home
We're coming home, We're coming home
Someday we're gonna find a home
Somewhere out in space
Somewhere out in space
