Where was I
when the rockets came to life
And carried you away
into the alligator sky
Even though I'll never know
what's up ahead
I'm never letting go
I'm never letting go
Remember to breathe
because it'll take
your breath away
When the engines cough
And you blast off
Ignite the night
with a firecracker flash
Remember to live
'Cause you're gonna be
thrilled to death
When the stars collide
And your eyes grow wide
Take it in with your breath
against the glass
Remember to dream
because it's gonna
be a starry night
Over every town
if you look down
So harmonize with
the singing satellites
Remember to scream
because you're gonna
be lost for words
When the sparks erupt
And they light you up
Dip your toes in the galaxy
'Cause it's yours
to explore tonight
Where was I
when the rockets came to life
And carried you away
into the alligator sky
Even though I'll never know
what's up ahead
I'm never letting go
I'm never letting go
Rollercoaster through
the atmosphere
I'm drowning in
this starry serenad
Where ecstasy
becomes cavalier
My imagination's
taking me away
Reverie whisper in my ear
I'm scared to death
that I'll never be afraid
Rollercoaster through
the atmosphere
My imagination's
taking me away
Let's hear it for the universe
Where it never hurts
Diving in head-first
Take a taste of the
melting Milky Way
And remember to laugh
'Cause you're living
in a crazy world
Where you'll never guess
what could happen next
Give the outer limits my
regards as you float to fly away
Where was I
when the rockets came to life
And carried you away
into the alligator sky
Even though I'll never know
what's up ahead
I'm never letting go
I'm never letting go
Where was I
when the rockets came to life
And carried you away
into the alligator sky
Even though I'll never know
what's up ahead
I'm never letting go
I'm never letting go
In the alligator sky
In the alligator sky
In the alligator sky
