[Intro: Stephen Hawking]
The revelations of new horizons may help us to understand better how our Solar System was formed
[Chorus: Brian May]
New horizons to explore
New horizons no one's ever seen before
[Verse 1: Brian May]
Limitless wonders in a never-ending sky
We may never, never reach them, that's why we have to try
[Chorus: Brian May]
New horizons to take our breath away
New horizons getting closer every day
[Verse 2: Brian May]
Somewhere in the distance, a wonder will appear
One day new horizons will be very, very near
That's why we're here
[Bridge: Brian May]
Tonight the hand of man reaches out
To throw light on how life came about
Computer is reckoning an all-time high
The future is beckoning onward and onward we fly
[Chorus: Brian May]
New horizons: a dream coming true
New horizons that will change our point of view
[Verse 3: Brian May]
The fruits of wishful thinking we taste them for real
We're off to new horizons so hold on to the wheel, hey-hey
That's how we feel
[Chorus: Brian May & Stephen Hawking]
New horizons every day (New Horizons)
New horizons
New horizons every day
[Outro: Brian May & Stephen Hawking]
Alright
We explore because we are human, and we want to know
