mitchell burnside clap - the high frontier كلمات الأغنية

jake was a sp_cer, he was handsome, lean, and proud
he was a triple pilot on the earth_moon run, aloof in the dirtside crowd
claire loved him for his laughter, like a boy he’d shrug and grin
his dreams were visions of the yet_to_be, away from the crowds and din

he wrote her nearly every other watch and hoped for a regular run;
she lived in the springs and every other day thought of going home to mum
but he’d await the phone when thеy were home alonе; by duty, love is clear
on the high frontier

cut next to jake in orbit, writing words then crossing out
shedding crumpled sheets like autumn leaves, a winter breeze of doubt
“i need you, claire, my darling, but i need to be here too
i can’t quit now and let my dreams fade out, so close to coming true

“for if i leave now, with the job half through, it’s not been worth a d_mn—
this isn’t only just a thing i do, it’s more like who i am
and there’s a queue around the block who wait for me to drop
can we take it for another year
on the high frontier?”

the last time he left her crying, angry words, then he went away
claire wonders where she fits into jake’s life, and she packs her things that day
but then the phone starts ringing; she almost lets it go—
“a call for you from luna terminal.” with hope she says “h_llo?”
“it’s me, my darling, and i’ve got good news; they gave me a steady run
we’ll be in luna city, and there’s room for you on the next ship out but one
till i can be with you and watch my dreams come true, we’ll make our future here
on the high frontier.”

so they worked out the passions, the anger, and the tears
save them in your memory
on the high frontier
