Wow. We actually got the lyrics right. We kept thinking it really was "Alien." And we were right, but what do aliens have to do with love?

In other words, we rediscovered the Hagar-led Van Halen tonight and can't with to run to "Poundcake" tomorrow like we did back in our first, "Wow, we don't have to be a fat kid anymore" phase back in '91.

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,
Things you've never realized

Chorus:
So when you sense a change
Nothing feels the same
All your dreams are strange, love comes walkin' in
Some kind of alien
Wait 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
Ohh there she stands in a silken gown
Silver lights shining down

Chorus
Love comes walkin' in

Solo

Sleep and dream is all I crave
I travel far across the Milky Way
To my master I become a slave
Til we meet again some other day
Where silence speaks as loud as war
And the earth returns to what it was before
Chorus
Love comes walkin' in
