I saw pictures from the space shuttle
Of America tonight
I could almost see my house
I could almost see the rest of my life
And my mother's in the hospital
And my friends are in the news
Collecting trophies for the songs they wrote
While we lived in the shadow of the moon
Yes, I never made a gold record
And I see colors when I hear your voice
Put on your wings that put gravity on trial
And I see colors, I don't hear the noise
Because we're only flying for a while
Because we're only flying for a while
I saw this picture of my niece
Whoooaaaaaaa (3x)
And I see colors when I hear your voice
Flying for a while
Flying for a while
