We were only seventeen
Yeah, we knew what it was to be free
They'd let us play up in the bars
Even though we had no IDs
We've come a long way, honey, I know
Thinking that time makes everything grow
But we were eyeing off a star
Just a little beyond our reach
We'd say, "Someday, we're gonna play on the moon
And we won't be afraid, we'll blow them all away from the milky dunes"
We'd say, "Someday, we'll take off with our friends and get high
And they'll give us right of way, so
We can make our waves up in the sky"
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We were only twenty-three
Had a crack at the Hollywood dream
But playing plastic with the stars
Wasn't all that we thought it'd be
We spent a long time, honey, I know
Chasing a rabbit down a dark hole
Somehow, they took away the magic
And they packaged it up to be sold
But someday, we're gonna play on the moon
I promise we'll be safe, it's only
Outer space, there'll be loads of room
Yeah, someday, we'll be dancing around in the sky
The galaxy to claim, the universe to paint with our neon lights
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We were kids, our hands were full of time
And all at once, we start to realize
These golden days don't last forever (Forever, no, no)
So give love and grab it with both hands
And show up for every song and dance
While you still can, yeah
But someday, we're gonna play on the moon
And we won't be afraid, we'll blow them all away from the milky dunes
We'd say, "Someday, we'll take off with our friends and get high
And they'll give us right of way, so we
Can make our waves up in the sky," yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
