"Silence holds dominion here
In the ashes of a bar that's been gone for many a year
The pictures burned, every smiling face
The test pilots who came to this place

They say there's a demon who lives out in the sky
And he would kill anyone who had the guts to try
To fly on mighty wings, and play his games
They came and they died, and no one knew their names

High Flight, to the heavens up above
Chase that demon living out there in the sky
High flight, to the heavens up above
Touch the face of God, and soar on by
High Flight, high flight, high flight,, high flight
High flight, high flight, high flight

Silence holds dominion here
In a concrete bunker that's been abandoned for many a year
The ghosts of the past rise up all about
From the days when the rockets would fly, the crowds would scream and shout

High flight to the heavens up above
Ride that fireball across the sky
High flight to the heavens up above
Slip the sinewy bonds, leave the Earth, and fly
High flight, high flight, high flight, high flight
High flight, high flight, high flight

They say every molecule comes from a star
Flung to the cosmos, flung out so far
As we prepare to leave, to explore, and roam
Maybe we're just going home

High flight, to the stars and beyond
High flight to the stars and beyond
High flight, high flight, high flight, high flight
High flight, high flight, high flight

Silence holds dominion here
At a landing site that's been untouched for many a year
The footprints and the flags still out there in the black
Waiting for the day when we'll be coming back

High flight to the stars and beyond high flight
Was it worth all that was lost along the way?
High flight to the stars and beyond high flight
Will it open the door to a brighter day?
High flight to the stars and beyond high flight
Will we go to distant wondrous lands?
High flight to the stars and beyond high flight
The future is in our hands

High flight to the stars and beyond high flight
The future is in our hands
High flight to the stars and beyond high flight
The future is in our hands

High flight to the stars and beyond high flight
To the stars and beyond high flight
To the stars and beyond high flight
To the stars and beyond high flight."
