They never called me
Up to the tower.
We gave it to them
They had the power.
And power is the thing
That made you take off from me.
We trained hard for the mission
All floating over.
Though we're in zero gravity
It pulled us closer.
(The little interlude between verses)
We were once off to the planets
Inside our spacesuits.
Now I'm left here on the landing
The rocket's flame boost.
And it's leaving without me
And you go off to the stars
(Transition into 3rd verse, and new key)
Goodbye goodbye look as the clouds burst
They're growing taller.
And as your ship leaves in the distance
My world gets smaller.
And it takes you worlds away
A million light-years from me.
(Outro with solo over progression)
