Lyrics
Rocket Love
(© Chris Reynolds 2006)
Captain, I stand here before you
I'm ready to stand by your side
With 60 young men and women aboard
We in for a heckuva ride
Blown into space with a blastoff
Burning through dawn's early light
Rocketing past the moon by noon
We'll be camping on Mars tonight
Where's your sense of adventure
And discovery?
Join our quest
We'll find a new life
Come rocket with me
Our spaceships fly in formation
Our telescopes focus as one
Our Planet Finder searches away
It will surely find us a home
With hybrid ionic propulsion
Screaming past thousands of stars
Working our way through a cold Milky Way
And playing inspired guitars
Come rocket with me
Come rocket with me
Join our quest
We'll find a new life
Come rocket with me
Captain, we're getting a message
Sent by our Sector 6 probe
An O2/CO2 planet's been found
As green as our own Earthly globe
"Tell the crew to get ready"
"We'll land near that crystalline dome"
"Radio Earth and tell 'em the news!"
"We've finally found our new home!"
Come rocket with me
Come rocket with me
Join our quest
We'll find a new life
Come rocket with me
