You said you wanted some space ... |
|
Well is this enough for you? ... |
|
This is what you've waited for ... |
|
No dust collecting in the corners ... |
|
No cups of tea that got cold before you drank them ... |
|
Tonight ... travelling at the speed of thought ... |
|
We're going to escape into the stars ... |
|
It doesn't matter if the lifts are out of order ... |
|
Or the car won't start ... |
|
We're rising up ... above the city ... over forests ... over fields ... |
|
Rivers and lakes ... into the clouds ... and up above us ... |
|
The whole universe is shining a welcome ... |
|
Did you ever really think this day would happen ... |
|
After days trying to sell washing-machines on your own? ... |
|
It looked like we never left the ground ... |
|
But we're weightless ... floating free ... |
|
We can go wherever we want ... solar systems ... constellations ... galaxies ... |
|
I'll race you to the nearest planet ... |
|
How may times have you wished upon a star? ... |
|
Now you can touch it ... you can touch the stars ... |
|
Go on ... don't be afraid ... |
|
'I only wanted some space' ... |
|
Well is this enough for you? ... Is it ? ... |
|
Well the stars are bright ... but they don't give out any heat ... |
|
The planets ... are lumps of rock ... floating in a vacuum ... |
|
Yeah, space is cold ... when you're on your own ... |
|
I think it's time to go home ... pulling my strings ... |
|
Like a kite that flew too high ... and now it's time to come down ... |
|
Look out below ... |
|
Wait 'til I get back ... |
|
You can see something ... |
|
You can see space ... but now I know ... it's O.K. ... |
|
Space is O.K. ... but I'd rather ... I'd rather get my ... |
|
I'd rather get my kicks down below ... oh yeah ... come on ... |
