lyrics

There’s a rocket in the sky
Even higher than the trees
If I wanted I could fly
It would circle back for me
Oh I know the choice is mine but
I’m afraid of things I haven’t tried before

There’s a rocket in the sky
And it’s waiting there for me
Should I go or should I hide
I could climb on and be free
Oh but everything would change
And the world would look so strange from way up there

Oh, from above, miles from home, as I ride this tin machine
Worlds beyond, nothing known, far beneath, mountains and streams
Colors swirl, I’m the wind pushing clouds and waves below
Flying up, diving down, question everything I know

There’s a rocket in the sky
And it won’t be there for long
It’s inviting me to try
To be brave and to be strong
Oh I know the choice is mine
But I’m afraid of things I haven’t tried before

Oh higher still, light years on, as I ride this tin machine
Shooting stars, I’m alone but I’m part of everything
See my world, far away, spinning planets all around
And I won’t be the same when my rocket touches down

Oh, from above, miles from home, as I ride this tin machine
Shooting stars, I’m alone but I’m part of everything
See my world, far away, spinning planets all around
And I won’t be the same when I’m home and touching down

Just when I thought I knew where I’d gone
Another turn, a different sun
Can’t wait to tell them down below
Oh how much more there is to know

Sara Lovell Berkeley, California

Sara Lovell's third children’s music album in less than four years, Night Life, celebrates the hours leading to bedtime and the magical worlds we enter when we finally fall sleep. As with her last two award winning albums, the new release moves beautifully between diverse musical genres – at moments riotous and full of unrestrained joy, at other moments tender, introspective and melodic. ... more
