SPEED OF LIGHT
(Music by Marc Traynor/ Words by Steve McAndrew)
Verse 1
as we near the speed of light, time she starts to bend our flight
where a second lasts long as a day, amongst the stars we write our passion play
strange places we shall be, floating in our endless sea
Chorus 1
don't know what lies ahead of us, but surely know what's left behind
don't know what is ahead of us, may be a new home world to find
Lead Guitar Break 1
Verse 2
two thousand years have come and gone, seeming just a second long
what of the planet we leave behind, in our giant leap for mankind
a brave new world we'd like to see, a brand new future for you and me
Chorus 2
don't know what lies ahead of us, but surely know what's left behind
don't know what's ahead of us, we hope a new home world to find
Middle 8
oh, what we left behind, oh, what we left behind
oh, what will we find, oh, what will we find
oh what will we find?
Chorus 3
no frontier final lies ahead of us, as we break the ties that bind
pushing boundaries ahead of us, newborn hunting ground to find
