How are you Chris? Nice to see you too.
On solid fuel and wires Turn the key and the light the fires. We’re leaving Earth today The rockets burning bright
We’ll soon be out of sight And or biting in space Pushed back in my seat Look out my window There goes home Source: LYBIO.net
That ball of shiny blue houses everybody anybody ever knew
So sing your song I’m listening out where stars are glistening I can hear your voices bouncing off the moon If you could see our Nation from the international space station You’d know why I want to get back soon
(Eighteen thousand miles an hour feel the rumbling power Earth is racing past At half a thousand tons Ninety minutes Moon to Sun Can anything be gone this fast)
Eighteen thousand miles an hour Fueled by science and solar power The oceans racing past At half a thousand tons Ninety minutes Moon to Sun A bullet can’t go half this fast
Floating from my seat Look out my window There goes Home That brilliant ball of blue Is where I’m from, and also where I’m going to
Pushed back in the seat Look out my window Here comes home What once was fueled by fear Now has fifteen Nation orbiting together here.
All back and white just fades to grey Where the sunrises sixteen times a day You can’t make out borders from up here Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere
