Just like a marvel of history
We were ahead of our time
An installation at Ripley′sHow we ended a mystery
An unexpected decline
As we strapped in for take off
Our love was ready to take flight
'Cause nobody could stop us
The air traffic controllers flew-by-night
We were approaching speeds of Mach 2
Sonic boom, slicing the sky
Smashing all of the windows of the homes we passed by
If you asked me forever, well we gave it a try
But we′re on our way down
The economics were misty
Perhaps the cost was too high
Gave too much to industry
Treated you unfairly
Priorities mis-aligned
Once we fired up the thrusters
We left all our problems behind
Nobody could've stopped us
We were faster than anyone could find
We were approaching speeds of Mach 2
Sonic boom, slicing the sky
Smashing all of the windows of the homes we passed by
If you asked me forever, well we gave it a try
But we're on our way down
We were approaching speeds of Mach 2
Sonic boom, slicing the sky
Smashing all of the windows of the homes we passed by
To tell you that I′m sorry I made you cry
But there′s no turning back now
There's no turning back now
Was always glad to count on you as co-captain
We had some great times up in the sky
But the time has come for us to say bye
Was always glad to count on you as co-captain
We had some great times up in the sky
But the time has come for us to say bye
Was always glad to count on you as co-captain
We had some great times up in the sky
But the time has come for us to say bye
Was always glad to count on you as co-captain
We had some great times up in the sky
But the time has come for us to say bye
Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah
Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah
Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah
Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah
