Rocket

Lyricist:Andrew Peterson

Oh, the sight of the mighty machine
The iron shine of a golden dream
On the edge of the ocean, a potential explosion
Stands so tall and so serene

I've got two little boys and a girl in bows
We were first in line just to see the show
To count down the seconds as destiny
Beckons into the arms of the astral glow

And we're gonna see a rocket
We're gonna see a rocket blast
Through the last of the atmosphere
Up and away to the great wide open

Adrift in an airless ocean
In a bliss of mystical motion
I'm stuck down here

Just look at the ground on the grassy hill
It'll lift you up but it holds you still
'Cause gravity binds us but glory defines us
It's the greater pull of a perfect will

And they say the ground is gonna quake and groan
They say the sound's gonna shake my bones
It's so full of meaning, alive and careening
Into the grace of the great unknown

And we're gonna see a rocket
We're gonna see a rocket blast
Through the last of the atmosphere
Up and away to the great wide open

Adrift in an airless ocean
In a bliss of mystical motion
I'm stuck down here

We stood among the multitude
We saw the rocket rise in a fiery hue
It defied destruction to ride the eruption
I have found this much is true

That love alone can carry you up and away
To the great wide open adrift in an endless ocean
In a bliss of mystical motion
I have found this much is true, love alone can carry you
