Space - BBC Hit The North Session Soundcheck

Lyrics for Space - BBC Hit The North Session Soundcheck

You said you wanted some space Well is this enough for you? This is what you've waited for No dust collecting in the corners No cups of tea that got cold before you drank them Tonight Travelling at the speed of thought We're going to escape into the stars It doesn't matter if the lifts are out of order Or the car won't start We're rising up Above the city Over forests Over fields Rivers and lakes Into the clouds And up above us The whole universe is shining a welcome Did you ever really think this day would happen After days trying to sell washing-machines on your own? It looked like we never left the ground But we're weightless Floating free We can go wherever we want Solar systems Constellations Galaxies I'll race you to the nearest planet How many times have you wished upon a star? Now you can touch it You can touch the stars Go on Don't be afraid "I only wanted some space" Well is this enough for you? Is it? Well the stars are bright But they don't give out any heat The planets Are lumps of rock Floating in a vacuum Yeah, space is cold When you're on your own I think it's time to go home Pulling my strings Like a kite that flew too high And now it's time to come down Look out below Wait 'til I get back You can see something You can see space But now I know It's O.K. Space is O.K. But I'd rather I'd rather get my I'd rather get my kicks down below Oh yeah Come on
