Major Tom (Coming Home) - Nick Valensi, William Shatner

Standing there alone

The ship is waiting

All systems are go

Are you sure?

Control is not convinced

But the computer

Has the evidence

«no need to abort»

The countdown starts

Watching in a trance

The crew is certain

Nothing left to chance

All is working

Trying to relax

Up in the capsule

«send me up a drink»

Jokes Major Tom

The count goes on

Earth below us

Drifting falling

Floating weightless

Calling calling home…

Second stage is cut

We’re now in orbit

Stabilizers up

Running perfect

Starting to collect

Requested data

What will it effect

When all is done

Thinks Major Tom

Back at ground control

There is a problem

Go to rockets full

Not responding

«hello Major Tom

Are you receiving

Turn the thrusters on

We’re standing by»

There’s no reply

Earth below us

Drifting falling

Floating weightless

Calling calling home…

Across the stratosphere

A final message

«give my wife my love»

Then nothing more

Far beneath the ship

The world is mourning

They don’t realize

He’s alive

No one understands

But Major Tom sees

Now the light commands

This is my home

I’m coming home

Earth below us

Drifting falling

Floating weightless

Coming home…

Earth below us

Drifting falling

Floating weightless

Coming home…

Earth below us

Drifting falling

Floating weightless

Coming coming home…

Home…
