Rockets

I stayed up to see the rockets

I stayed up to see the moon

But I only heard the rockets

And I only saw the moon

Smokin' a rollie

That I snuffed out

When I heard climbin' below

And I heard you wail in your distant leather

Across town, swayin' to the sound

As closed hands in the air

As closed hands in the air

I stayed up to feel the air

I stayed up to test my fear

But when I heard the animals fightin'

It was all could do not to feel like I was dyin'

Like I was dyin'

Like I was dyin'

I went out onto the water

Just to see if I'd float

But I looked down to the cliff below

And I lost trust of my boat

Spinnin' around, I cried out

As closed hands in the air

As closеd hands in the air

Turned older on my birthday

I stick around to see it through

Evеry year it passes by me

Find myself turnin' into you

Cross town dressed in leather

Swayin' to the sound

As closed hands in the air

As closed hands in the air

As closed hands in the air
