This song was supposed to be an epitaph
But I guess we came back from the dead, huh?
When I was only seventeen
My head was full of brilliant dreams
My heart would call and I would gladly go
Twenty-one, the world was mine
I was yours, you're divine
Nothing else would matter to us so
I don't believe in destiny
Don't believe in love
Don't believe that anything
Will ever be enough
Oh man, you should have seen us on the way to Venus
Walking on the Milky Way, it was quite a day
(Hey, hey) Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
Walking on the big stuff, acting like we're real tough
Baby, we were on our way, so what d'you say?
(Hey, hey) Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
As time goes by, reality
Destroys your hope and dignity
There's nothing left but shadows on the wall
But just remember who you are
Where you've been, you've gone so far
Never let the bastards see you fall
I don't believe in miracles
Don't believe in truth
Don't believe that anything
Can recreate your youth
Oh man, you should have seen us on the way to Venus
Walking on the Milky Way, it was quite a day
(Hey, hey) Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
Walking on the big stuff, acting like we're real tough
Baby, we were on our way, so what d'you say?
(Hey, hey) Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
Hey, hey
Walking on the Milky Way
(Hey, hey)
Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
Oh man, you should have seen us on the way to Venus
Walking on the Milky Way, it was quite a day
(Hey, hey) Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
I can't hear you
Walking on the big stuff, acting like we're real tough
Baby, we were on our way, so what d'you say?
(Hey, hey) Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
Oh man, you should have seen us, we were on the way to Venus
We were walking on the Milky Way, it was our day
(Hey, hey) Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
Hey, hey
Hey-ey, (Hey, hey)
You should have seen us, we were on our way to Venus
Hey-ey, hey-ey
And Paul played it right!
Yeah!
