sittin' up here

watchin' all the lights blink down below

the earth is turning

why does it go so slow

thinkin' bout the girl I left behind

Houston can you hear me

or have I lost my mind

why me?

why me?

I was waiting on the pad

all systems were go

the man up in the tower

was enjoying the show

then I got this feeling

that I never had before

hey let me out of here

what am I here foe

why me?

why me?

there must be athousand other guys

must be some other way to look good in your eyes

why am I up here, what do they see in me

must be athousand other places to be

why me

the last man to be here

was never heard from again

he won't be back this way

till 2010...

and now I'm riding on a fountain of fire

with my back to the earth

I go higher and higher

why me?

why me?

there must be a thousand other guys

must be some other way

to look good in your eyes

why am I up here, what do they see in me

must be athousand other places to be

why me

take anyone but me

why me
