Outer Space Rocket Trilogy part 1 Clif Flynt Copyright 1979 #Am G Am G There is a new world risin high above the air, #Am G There is a new world risin' #Am G And I could go, #Am G You know I would go, #Am G Am You know I should go there. There is a new world rising high above the sky A world being filled by men who can look the future in the eye And if I stay here, One more day here, I'll be here when that future arrives. #Am G Am G Am But it's a world of cold, grey steel, Far from the oceans and fields. #Am G Am G Am With never a cloud in the sky, And horizons that won't meet the eye. There is a new world building, a world of cold gray steel, A world being filled by men who see only things that are real. And I sit here, Dream a bit here, Think of how I'd feel. And there is the future waiting, Nose pointing to the skies, Waiting for the men to board her, then with a roar she will rise, And I sit here, Just a bit here, Til I've seen her rise. And I'll stay planet bound, with my feet planted firmly to the ground. Held by my memories here, by my memories, my hopes, and my fears. For there is a new world rising, raise your eyes and you'll see, There on the far horizon, With no space for, Never space for, Dream-bound fools like me.
