Lyrics
Leave me alone
Expressing a desire for solitude and distance
Leave me alone my dear
Reiteration of the need for personal space
And don't call on the phone
Request to avoid communication via phone
I will not answer oh no
Commitment not to respond to calls
Leave me alone
Reaffirmation of the plea for solitude
Leave me alone up here
Emphasizing the desire to be left alone
In this world of my own
Describing a personal, isolated world
Where I feel safe and at home
Feeling secure and comfortable in one's own space
call me astronaut
Self-identification as an astronaut
I am ready for take off
Expressing readiness for a journey
All systems are go
All systems are ready for departure
Astronaut I say goodbye
Bidding farewell as an astronaut
Forever you know
Indicating a permanent goodbye
wide open space
Desiring a vast and unoccupied space
Wide open space I need
Expressing a need for wide, open surroundings
Here the air is quite thin and
Highlighting the thin air in the open space
There's no light getting in
Emphasizing the absence of external influence
call me astronaut
Reiteration of being an astronaut
Count three-two-one lift off
Countdown to lift off, emphasizing readiness
All systems are go
All systems are prepared for departure
Astronaut I say goodbye
Saying goodbye as an astronaut
To my friends and foe
Bidding farewell to both friends and foes
dancing on a sunbeam
Describing a joyful, carefree experience
Riding on a jet stream
Enjoying a fast and exhilarating journey
Loving if we only could
Expressing a wish for love
Dancing on a moonbeam
Engaging in a delightful, dreamlike dance
Drifting in a daydream
Drifting in a pleasant daydream
Leaving never felt so good
Expressing the joy of leaving
wide open eyes
Expressing a need for clear vision
Wide open eyes I need
Desiring open and unobstructed sight
As I stare into space
Gazing into space with a particular focus
It is your picture I face
Reflecting on a specific image or memory
Wide open eyes
Emphasizing the importance of clear eyesight
Wide open eyes can't see
Expressing a limitation in vision
Where we lost our way and
Reflecting on a point of deviation in a relationship
Where our love went astray
Highlighting the divergence of love

No specific meaning provided
Chorus
-leave me alone
Reiteration of the plea for solitude
Leave me alone up here
Stressing the desire for isolation
In this world of my own
Describing a personal, isolated world again
Wish you were here
Expressing a longing for someone's presence
