Contact is all it takes To change your life to lose your place in time Contact, asleep or awake Coming around you may wake up to find Questions deep within your eyes Now more than ever you realize And then you sense a change Nothing feels the same All your dreams are strange Love comes walkin' in Some kind of alien Waits for the opening Then simply pulls a string Another world, some other time You lay your sanity on the line Familiar faces familiar sights Reach back remember with all your might Oh there she stands in a silken gown Silver lights shining down So when you sense a change Nothing feels the same All your dreams are strange Love comes walkin' in Some kind of alien Waits for the opening Then simply pulls a string Love comes walkin' in Oh, sleep and dream is all I crave I travel far across the milky way To my master I become a slave Till we meet again some other day Where silence speaks as loud as war Earth returns to what it was before And then you sense a change Nothing feels the same All your dreams are strange Love comes walkin' in Some kind of alien Waits for the opening Then simply pulls a string Love comes walkin' in Love comes walkin' in Baby, pull the string Love comes walkin' in Love comes walkin' in yeah
