we say welcome to the mission show us all what you can do we need a man with vision so we put our trust in you and now we hope sincerely that you'll do the best that you can do
oh for sure it won't be easy and we will have to risk our lives some will try to break us and cut us down to size but just remember there can be no consolation prize not in our eyes
it's a long way to go we can't wait one more day we need someone to light up the way we may run out of time can you hear what we say? because heaven is so far away
although time is getting short there's still some sand left in the glass and now we have a living breathing rocket man at last it's time to take a step and nail our colours to the mast
no more talk of great adventures when it's movement that we need it must be our intention that we never loose the lead so count us down to zero and let's get up to speed we're up and away
it's a long way to go we can't wait one more day we need someone to light up the way we may run out of time so believe what we say? because heaven is so far away
and so now they cry for justice as if justice will be done but the eye up in the sky was flying to close to the sun the challenger has fallen and the race has now been run....
in the coldest time of year, darkness all around my heart. i was alone but didn't fear to wander in the light of stars. in the bright and silent night, winds would knock and disappear. still i felt the feeling near, like the first time you were ever here. you're so far away, so far away, you left me, you told me you would stay. you never said goodbye and i'll keep asking why, i keep on asking how, oh come unto me now. i have breathed the morning air, i have heard the four winds blow. i was weary but prepared to follow down this lonely road. in the room where lovers sleep, winds would knock and disappear. still i felt the music near, like the first time we were ever here. you're so far away, so far away, you left me, you told me you would stay. you never said goodbye and i keep wondering why, i keep on wondering how, oh come inside me now.
