Electric Light Orchestra — Ticket to the Moon (1981)

Remember the good old nineteen eighties?
When things were so uncomplicated?
I wish I could go back there again
And everything could be the same.

I've got a ticket to the Moon
I'll be leaving here any day soon
Yeah, I've got a ticket to the Moon
But I'd rather see the sunrise in your eyes.

Got a ticket to the Moon
I'll be rising high above the Earth so soon
And the tears I cry might turn into the rain
That gently falls upon your window
You'll never know.

CHORUS:
Ticket to the Moon (ticket to the Moon)
Ticket to the Moon (ticket to the Moon)
Ticket to the Moon (ticket to the Moon).

Fly, fly through a troubled sky
Up to a new world shining bright, oh, oh.

Flying high above
Soaring madly through the mysteries that come
Wondering sadly if the ways that led me here
Could turn around and I would see you there
Standing there (and I would see you there, waiting...)

Ticket to the Moon
Flight leaves here today from Satellite Two
As the minutes go by, what should I do?
I paid the fare, what more can I say?
It's just one way (only one way)...
