On the Way

Shipwrecked on the deserted moon

If I knew you’d be here so soon...I would

have packed light

Your star came too close, knocked

me out of orbit

I’m on a crash course with the sun

And we’ve both been burned before

We probably should have learned before

But I’m willing to make a mistake...

On the way

Circumnavigating the heavens

In a capsule built for two

Will we have enough water, have enough air?

And what the hell will we do, if we don’t?

Now I’ve survived worse

With no time to rehearse

But the practice is over ‘cause I’m...

On the way

What if we were trapped inside those

helmets?

That the astronauts wear in the hostile

atmosphere

I can see you in my visor...but I cannot

touch your face

Or hold you near

But I would take a dare

And breathe in the alien air

We’ve taken a lot of risks already

Even for just one kiss already

And I’ll take a lot more risks...

On the way
