| We’re high above the tranquil sea
|
| I take a big deep breath and set the Eagle free
|
| Oh, I know, what I know and I know it’s all up to me
|
| But, I feel what I feel and I feel the history
|
| Over two hundred thousand miles home
|
| If the Eagle fails, I go back alone
|
| Oh, I know, what I know and I know it’s all up to me
|
| But, I feel what I feel and yeah, I feel the history
|
| They got names like superheroes, bigger than The Beatles or I could ever be
|
| They got all the great one-liners, written in the schoolbooks for all eternity
|
| They’re bouncing up and down in the tranquil sea
|
| Three hundred million girls watch on TV
|
| Oh, I know, what I know and I know its just jealousy
|
| But, I feel what I feel and I feel it endlessly
|
| They got names like superheroes, bigger than The Beatles or I could ever be
|
| They got all the great one-liners, written in the schoolbooks for all eternity
|
| We are waiting for connection, trans-Earth injection, three thousand degrees,
|
| yes
|
| Splashdown, North Pacific Ocean; |
| soon we will be home where Hornet waits for
|
| three, yeah
|
| Oh, I know what I know, as my parachutes released
|
| Like peppermint candy we float in a blue-sky dream
|
| Like «Starlite Mints» we move through the cotton sky
|
| And the arms of the ocean are stretched out; |
| open wide
|
| Yeah, they got all the great one-liners, written in the schoolbooks for all
|
| eternity
|
| They got names like superheroes, bigger than The Beatles or I could ever be
|
| And now I’ve all but been forgotten, Forgotten Astronaut has been lost to
|
| history, yeah |
