Castaways Lyrics by Toyah

The Changeling

1982

We leave the approach
The runway's no longer close
Journey into discovery
Exiled into night flight
We're on our way to mysterious worlds
Moonlit horizons from a hazy moon
Starlight sprinkled on blue lagoons
We're castaways, on our way
To mysterious worlds
Today!
Candy-floss and new messiahs
A cosmic pill with painless fire
Penny arcades and daisy chains
Rock Facades and quiz games
The weather was fine
We're castaways; on our way
To mysterious worlds
We left a dying world behind
Slowly eaten by the mists of time
The weather's good; take-off was fine
Now we're castaways
On our way to mysterious worlds
There's no turning back, no change of course
Don't even think we should, we wouldn't if we could
Luck's on our side, the weather's good, take-off was fine
Now we're castaways
On our way to mysterious worlds
Today!
Luck's on our side
We throw our cares into the sky
It's you and I, it's you and I...
Another planet, another time
We disappear into the night...
We left the dying world behind
Slowly eaten by the mists of time
Now it's and you and I, It's you and I...
We leave the approach
The runway's no longer close
We're on our way
We're pioneers
Disappear, disappear...
