Terra Firma Lyrics - Global - Todd Rundgren

I am Christopher Columbus 

On the bounding main 

Searching for a new world 

And I don't know when I'm back again 

If I can find my way back home again 

I am scanning the horizon 

But there's nothing there to see 

Wondering where to turn to 

And the quest seems more like a fantasy 

With every passing moment it seems to be 

And that's the thing that frightens me 

Whenever I feel afraid 

I put my faith in terra firma 

And I'm never far away 

Because you're my terra firma

I am on Apollo Seven 

Heading into space 

Where no man has ever ventured 

And at times I feel so out of place 

Then the moon looks like your shining face (yeah) 

I see Terra far below me 

Green and white and blue 

I know you are down there somewhere 

But I feel so far away from you 

Hoping that you're thinking of me too 

Even though I know you always do 

Whenever I feel alone 

I come home to terra firma 

A place I can call my own 

Because you're my terra firma 

Photos 

Whenever I feel afraid 

I put my faith in terra firma 

And I'm never far away 

Because you're my terra firma 

I am off to great adventures 

Leaving you behind 

Far beyond the border 

And I have no clue what I will find 

But the thought of home never leaves my mind (oooh) 

Though the minutes stretch to hours 

And the hours stretch to days 

Through the trials and tribulations 

When it seems like I'm so far away 

And it's just too high a price to pay 

There is one thing I can always say 

Whenever I feel afraid 

I put my faith in terra firma 

And I'm never far away 

Because you're my terra firma 

Whenever I feel alone 

I come home to terra firma 

A place I can call my own 

Because you're my terra firma 

Whenever I feel afraid 

I put my faith in terra firma 

And I'm never far away 

Because you're my terra firma 

Whenever I feel alone 

I come home to terra firma 

The place I can call my own because Because you're my terra firma
