Long Way Down
Houston, come in guys, my friends we're okay, yeah
Rocket's launched and we're floating out in space
It's been a long day but we got away, we really got away
And the truth is we're not comin' back
We're gonna wear these butterfly shoes and I don't get the blues
And what I was and what I was and what I was
'Cause it's a long way down to where we don't belong
And what I got, what I got, what I got, I wanna give away
Yeah, it's a long way down to where we don't belong
And what I got, what I got, what I got, I wanna give away
Houston, are you there, my friends we're not scared
Got lots of room, room to move around, yeah
And we're gonna try to back this thing up to get a view
Of the planet earth, I hear it's really blue
And it's a long way down to where we don't belong
And what I got, what I got, what I got, I wanna give away
Yeah, it's a long way down to where we don't belong
And what I got, what I got, what I got, I wanna give away
Houston, anyone, answer if you're there
Our view of earth has finally disappeared, yeah
And it was a great thing to see our planet out there in the distance
Togetherness, togetherness at last, last
And it's a long way down to where we don't belong
And what I got, what I got, what I got, I wanna give away
Yeah, it's a long way down to where we don't belong
And what I got, what I got, what I got, I wanna give away
It's a long way, it's a long way
It's a long way, it's a long way
It's a long way, it's a long way
...

It's a long way, it's a long way
It's a long way, it's a long way
