Rocket Man - Live From Moscow / 1979

She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour 9:00 a.m.
And I'm gonna be high
As a kite by then

I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

And I think it's gonna be a long long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone

And I think it's gonna be a long long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them
If you did

And all this science
I don't understand
It's just my job five days a week
A rocket man
A rocket man

And I think it's gonna be a long long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone

And I think it's gonna be a long long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone

And I think it's gonna be a long long time
It's gonna be a long long time
It's gonna be a long long time

And I burned out
Burned out
Burned all out
I feel up here
That feels up here

And I'm burning out
I'm burning out
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning out, I'm burning out
My fuse
I'm burning out my fuse
And I'm all alone
And I'm all alone

I'm burning out my fuse up here

Just a rocket man
Just a rocket man
I think it's gonna be a long long time
It's gonna be a long long time
Up here

It's gonna be a long long time
It's gonna be a long long time
I think it's gonna be a long long time
