And the record tonight for you listening pleasure,
Will be a melancholy tune by an unknown space drifter.

T-minus 3, 2, 1. We have liftoff.
****
And tonight I sent a ship
Bright and close to a far away place.
And the sound of emptiness
Growing faster than I could have wished.

And these walls are closing in
Faster than the air gets in.
It's okay, because I'm lost,
A wondrous place in endless space.
****
So when I have done it all,
And laid down to accept my great fall.
But wait, now I don't have time;
There's a hole in the ship and my mind.

And these walls are closing in
Faster than the air gets in.
It's okay, because I'm lost,
A wondrous place in endless space.

I don't mind if I'm not heard.
I'm alone. I'm going home.
And I've come to realize
That I'll be there. I'll meet you there.
****
My last breath has come to pass.
Looking down at the end here at last.
Watch me smile as I leap out
For the stars, and the moment has passed.

I've let go. I've let it out
Faster than the air gets out.
Ah ah ah.
It's okay, because I'm lost,
A wondrous place somewhere in space.
Ah ah ah.

I don't mind if I'm not heard.
I'm alone. I'm going home.
Ah ah ah.
And I've come to realize
That I'll be there. I'll meet you there.
I'll be there.
****
Come with me; I know the way back.
Yes I know, I know the way back.
Come with me; you'll be my way back.
You and me, we go way back.

Come with me; I know the way back.
Yes I know, I know the way back.
Come with me; you'll be my way back.
You and me, we go way back.

We go way back, and on and on.
We go way back, and on and on.
We go way back, and on and on,
And on and on.

We go way back, and on and on.
We go way back, and on and on.
We go way back, and on and on,
And on and on.
