Rocket

Rocket

by: Allen R Cleveland

Rocket through the sky with me,
take me to the distant moon.
We'll shake a few stars in the heavens,
and ride a comet to our doom.

Before we can approach the death,
that our bodies will embrace.
Lets put our arms around each other,
and fly out into outer space.

Lets not let anyone it this world,
distract our love making that will be.
and we'll shoot for the distant galaxies,
we'll be away from everybody and be free.

Past rolling asteroids we'll soar,
ducking and dodging to and fro.
but we will be together to share,
what there is left of life we know.

So lets skip across the stars,
and twril around in space.
for each time I look up there,
I'll see your lovely face
