Odyssey

Can you see the stars above?

Can you touch the silver moon?

I will be up there

I’ll be looking down at you

You don’t have to be afraid

No, nothing can go wrong

I will be home soon

And I know you will be strong

Keep your eye upon the sky

As the moon is flying high

And I’ll send you down a smile

From two hundred thousand miles

Time to say goodbye…

Our odyssey’s started

The countdown is on

It’s the turn of the tide, the point of no return

The moment of truth has arrived

Our planet behind us

Our moon on the rise

But hey... a terrible sound, systems breaking down

Is this the end?

We seem to have a problem here

We’re fading away, mayday mayday!

Our trial has started

A race against time

Frozen in space, fighting for our lives

Here in this tomb made of steel

But I made a promise

And I’ll see it through

Keep your eye on the sky, as the moon is flying high

I will be there

And for the world this was just another mission

No papers, radio, news or television

But now we’re failing, everybody’s listening

But do they care at all? Does anyone care?

Do they really care at all?
