about

We’re high above the tranquil sea
I take a big deep breath and set the Eagle free

Oh, I know, what I know and I know it’s all up to me
But, I feel what I feel and I feel the history

Over two hundred thousand miles home
If the Eagle fails, I go back alone

Oh, I know, what I know and I know it’s all up to me
But, I feel what I feel and yeah, I feel the history

They got names like superheroes, bigger than The Beatles or I could ever be
They got all the great one-liners, written in the schoolbooks for all eternity

They’re bouncing up and down in the tranquil sea
Three hundred million girls watch on TV

Oh, I know, what I know and I know it’s just jealousy
But, I feel what I feel and I feel it endlessly

They got names like superheroes, bigger than The Beatles or I could ever be
They got all the great one-liners, written in the schoolbooks for all eternity

We are waiting for connection, trans-Earth injection, three thousand degrees, yes
Splashdown, North Pacific Ocean; soon we will be home where Hornet waits for three, yeah

Oh, I know what I know, as my parachutes released
Like peppermint candy we float in a blue-sky dream

Like “Starlite Mints” we move through the cotton sky
And the arms of the ocean are stretched out; open wide

Yeah, they got all the great one-liners, written in the schoolbooks for everyone to read
Yeah, they got names like superheroes, bigger than The Beatles on black and white TV

And now I’ve all but been forgotten, Forgotten Astronaut has been lost to history, yeah
