Hello Earth [Hounds Of Love/The Ninth Wave]

 

                                "Columbia now at nine times the speed of sound."

                                "Roger that, Dan, I've got a solid TACAN locked on,

                                               uh, TACAN two and three."

                                "The, uh, tracking data, map data and pre-planned

                                               trajectory are all one line on the block"

                                "Show your block decode..."

 

                Hello, Earth.

                                "Hello Earth"

                Hello, Earth.

                                "Hello Earth"

                With just one hand held up high

                I can blot you out,

                Out of sight.

 

                Peek-a-boo,

                Peek-a-boo, little Earth.

                With just my heart and my mind

                I can be driving,

                Driving home,

                And you asleep

                On the seat.

 

                I get out of my car,

                Step into the night

                And look up at the sky.

                And there's something bright,

                Travelling fast.

                Just look at it go!

                Just look at it go!

 

[A Georgian traditional song "Tsiv Tskaro" is sung here]

 

                                ("Listen!")

                                Hello Earth

                                Hello Earth

 

                Watching storms

                Start to form

                Over America.

                Can't do anything.

                Just watch them swing

                With the wind

                Out to sea.

 

                All you sailors,

                                ("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")

                All life-savers,

                                ("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")

                All you cruisers,

                                ("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")

                All you fishermen,

                Head for home.

 

                Go to sleep, little Earth.

                I was there at the birth,

                Out of the cloudburst,

                The head of the tempest.

                Murderer!

                Murder of calm.

                Why did I go?

                Why did I go?

 

[A Georgian traditional song "Tsiv Tskaro" is sung several times]

 

                                "Tiefer, tiefer, irgendwo in der Tiefe gibt es ein Licht."

[English: Deeper,deeper somewhere in the deep there is a light]

 

                Go to sleep little Earth.

Tiefer, tiefer, irgendwo in der Tiefe gibt es ein Licht - Profondément, plus profondément, quelque part au plus profond il y a une lumière...
