Remember the good old 1980s? 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 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)... Ticket to the moon (Ticket to the moon) Ticket to the moon (Ticket to the moon) Ticket to the moon (Ticket to the moon) Ticket to the moon (Ticket to the moon) Ticket to the moon (Ticket to the moon) Ticket to the moon (Ticket to the moon)
