She grew like a flower now she’s pulling up her roots she’s trading in those small town shoes for some astronaut boots her daddy says “we’ll miss you just don’t forget this place. You better send us back a postcard when you hit the milky way” now the countdown has begun and it’s 5 4 3 2 1
she’s gonna run into the sun, break through the atmosphere dance with the stars, hang out on mars lightyears away from here she’s finding her place up there in space she won’t be back here soon no she’s not going home til she leaves footprints on the moon
she waited for this moment since she was just a little girl she knows there’s something out there for her that’s bigger than this world now she’s chasing down those comets she’s gonna catch them one by one and she’ll get to where she’s going if she can just hold on
you’ve come so far, know who you are up so high but you can’t look down you f*** it up gotta keep your head up now
