Grand Funk Railroad - Life in Outer Space lyrics

We find our way by moonlight Life in outer space Must you leave the planet Now we're tryin' to save the human race I was so carefree But that was then and I am older now The future sits upon my shoulders now I must preserve my family Before there's nothing left to be There's no place left to run We ride this ship that's powered by the sun In search of hope and life for everyone We might return to earth someday When all this smoke is cleared away Find our way by moonlight Life in outer space Must you leave the planet, yeah Now we're tryin' to save the human race Life in outer space Life in outer space There's still a memory Of what the life on earth's supposed to be Oh, but they didn't leave it up to me We might return to earth someday When all this smoke is cleared away Life in outer space
