Lyrics
ROCKETSHIP
Get me a rocket ship
I might need it
Got to get out of here
I call it how I feel it
It’s not a sign,
No, it’s not a waste
It’s not a dig on your need to be chased
It’s not anything to make you afraid
I’m not running away
This is not an excuse, I’m just lookin for a tune
They say they heard a song on the back of the moon
Gonna come home, gonna sing it to you
I’m lookin for a song on the back of the moon
Counting down til take off
Believe me that there’s nothin wrong
See it any way you want
Hope you’ll miss me when I’m gone
If you can’t relate to my dream of space
Sure seems clear in that look on your face
If there’s anything that gives you away
It’s your lack of faith
This is not an excuse, I’m just lookin for a tune
They say they heard a song on the back of the moon
Gonna come home, gonna sing it to you
I’m lookin for a song on the back of the moon
