Major Tom (coming Home) Lyrics - Fehler Im System - Peter Schilling

Standing there alone, the ship is waiting 

All systems are go, are you sure? 

Control is not convinced 

But the computer has the evidence 

No need to abort 

The countdown starts 

Watching in a trance, the crew is certain 

Nothing left to chance, all is working 

Trying to relax, up in the capsule 

"Send me up a drink", jokes Major Tom 

The count goes on 

4, 3, 2, 1 

Earth below us 

Drifting falling 

Floating weightless 

Calling calling home 

Second stage is cut, we're now in orbit 

Stabilizers up, running perfect 

Starting to collect, requested data 

What will it effect, when all is done 

Thinks Major Tom 

Back at ground control, there is a problem 

Go to rockets full, not responding 

Hello Major Tom, are you receiving 

Turn the thrusters on, we're standing by 

There's no reply 

4, 3, 2, 1 

Earth below us 

Drifting, falling 

Floating, weightless 

Calling, calling, home 

Across the stratosphere 

A final message, "Give my wife my love" 

Then nothing more 

Far beneath the ship, the world is mourning 

They don't realize, he's alive 

No one understands but Major Tom sees 

Now the light commands, this is my home 

I'm coming home 

Earth below us 

Drifting falling 

Floating weightless 

Coming home 

Earth below us 

Drifting falling 

Floating weightless 

Coming home 

Earth below us 

Drifting falling 

Floating weightless 

Coming coming home
