Lyrics
Find another songI found the air
Down here in the chambers
You warned me of danger
But I want to stop this - for a moment
There must be someone - in the open
Waiting for the starlight
Rendezvous at midnight
I want to touch them - and to love them
And we'll be there - when it's over
All the love we'll never know
The machine has got control
Can you hear the voices
Calling out the choices
Spend a lifetime - going nowhere
The machine stops - and it's over
All the love we'll never know
The machine has got control
I found the air
The machine stops
