Chorus

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

Verse

Remember to breathe because it'll take your breath away

When the engines cough, and you blast off

Ignite the night with a firecracker flash

Remember to live 'cause you're gonna be thrilled to death

When the stars collide and your eyes grow wide

Take it in with your breath against the glass

Remember to dream because it's gonna be a starry night

Over every town if you look down

So harmonize with the singing satellites

Remember to scream because you're gonna be lost for words

When the sparks erupt and they light you up

Dip your toes in the galaxy 'cause it's yours to explore tonight

Chorus

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

Bridge

Rollercoaster through the atmosphere

I'm drowning in this starry serenade

Where ecstasy becomes cavalier

My imagination's taking me away

Reverie whisper in my ear

I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid

Rollercoaster through the atmosphere

My imagination's taking me away

Verse

Let's hear it for the Universe

Where it never hurts

Diving in head-first

Take a taste of the melting milky Way

And remember to laugh 'cause you're living in a crazy world

Where you'll never guess what could happen next

Give the outer limits my regards as you float to fly away

Chorus

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

(KEY CHANGE)

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

The alligator sky

The alligator sky

The alligator sky
