  • Call back the cap-com,
    Tick off the time-bomb
    Let felicity fly
    Armour the airlock
    Blanket the bedrock
    And kiss the planet goodbye

    Dear God, I was terribly lost
    When the galaxies crossed
    And the Sun went dark
    But dear God, You're the only North Star
    I would follow this far

    Fight back the flight deck
    Bring on the breakneck
    Cue the solar eclipse
    Summit the sunset
    Dovetail the dragnet
    And blow your backbone to bits

    Dear God, I was terribly lost
    When the galaxies crossed
    And the Sun went dark
    But dear God, You're the only North Star
    I would follow this far

    Oh telescope
    Keep an eye on my only hope
    Lest I blink and be swept off the narrow road
    Hercules, you've got nothing to say to me
    'Cause you're not the blinding light that I need

    For He is the saving grace
    Of the Galaxies
    He is the saving grace
    Of the Galaxies

    Dear God, I was terribly lost
    When the galaxies crossed
    And the Sun went dark
    But dear God, You're the only North Star
    I would follow this far Writer/s: ADAM R. YOUNG
