SLEEPING SATELLITE
Tasmin Archer
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died with the eagle's flight
I blame you for the moonlight night
When I wonder why are the seas still dry?
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Did we fly to the moon too soon?
Did we squander the chance?
In the rush of the race
The reason we chase is lost in romance
And still we try
To justify the waste
For a taste of man's greatest adventure
CHORUS
Have we lost what it takes to advance?
Have we peaked too soon?
If the world is so green
Then why does it scream under a blue moon?
We wonder why
If the earth is sacrificed for a price
Of its greatest treasure
CHORUS
Are we ones that shoot for the stars?
What a giant step
Have we got what it takes to carry the weight
Of this concept?
Or pass it by
Like a shot in the dark
Miss the mark
With a sense of adventure?
