billy bragg - the space race is over كلمات الأغنية

when i was young i told my mum
i’m going to walk on the moon someday
armstrong and aldrin spoke to me
from houston and cape kennedy

and i watched the eagle landing
on a night when the moon was full
and as it tugged at the tides, i knew deep inside
i too could feel its pull

i lie in my bed and dreamed i walked
on the sea of tranquility
i knew that someday soon we’d all sail to the moon
on the high tide of technology

but the dreams have all been taken
and the window seats taken too
and 2001 has almost come and gone
what am i supposed to do?

now that the sp-ce race is over
it’s been and it’s gone and i’ll never get to the moon
because the sp-ce race is over
and i can’t help but feel we’ve all grown up too soon

now my dreams have all been shattered
and my wings are tattered too
and i can still fly but not half as high
as once i wanted to

now that the sp-ce race is over
it’s been and it’s gone and i’ll never get to the moon
now that the sp-ce race is over
and i can’t help but feel we’ve all grown up too soon

my son and i stand beneath the great night sky
and gaze up in wonder
i tell him the tale of apollo and he says
“why did they ever go?”

it may look like some empty gesture
to go all that way just to come back
but don’t offer me a place out in cybersp-ce
’cause where in the h-ll’s that at?

now that the sp-ce race is over
it’s been and it’s gone, i’ll never get out of my room
now that the sp-ce race is over
and i can’t help but feel we’re all just going nowhere

- billy bragg
