Life’s so lonely — I am so blue
is there no way we can renew
our lovelife

I feel so hopeless time to time
so pitiful — truth is that I’m
still lovestruck

I did not always treat you right
please forgive me and reignite
your lovelight

our love song has not all been sung
please don’t abandon me among
the lovelorn

all this time we’ve been so happy
let’s find a way again to be
those lovebirds

I want you to see me again
to again be reflected in
your love-eyes

Wow — it is so hard to believe
that it’s finally time to leave
the spaceport

last night I nearly opted out
lying in bed thinking about
this spaceflight

I am nervous — I’m telling you
I fear at blast off I might poo
my spacesuit

but it’s damned cool that of this crew
I am the one who gets to do
the spacewalk

is this to me a dream come true
yes — if they keep me tethered to
the spacecraft
