So Far from the Moon

[Verse 1]
I was doing dinner theatre
Somewhere I don't recall
Carpet bagging town to town
The summer to the fall
Sleeping in my pickup
Feeling like I'd hit a low
My marriage had been cancelled
And then so did my show

[Chorus]
Well, it was four in the morning
And dawn was coming soon
I was bound by gravity
So far from the moon, yeah
It was four in the morning
And dawn was coming soon
But was bound by gravity
And so far from the moon

[Verse 2]
The Apollo Mission took off
The planet watched, enthralled
But man's greatest achievement
Made this man feel so small
I stared up at the sky
Stars like little pins
Armstrong took a giant leap
While I fell down again

[Chorus]
Well, it was four in thе morning
And dawn was coming soon
I was bound by gravity
So far from the moon, yeah
It was four in the morning
And dawn was coming soon
But I was bound by gravity
And so far from thе moon

[Bridge]
Well, I rode a plastic spaceship
A flashlight laser beam
But, some piece of that fiction
Helped push along the dream
I even met the astronauts
A year before they flew
So, some small part of me
Was up there with them

[Chorus]
Yeah, it was four in the morning
And dawn was coming soon (Dawn was coming soon)
I was bound by gravity (I was bound by gravity)
So far from the moon, yeah
It was four in the morning (It was four in the morning)
And dawn was coming soon (Dawn was coming soon)
I was bound by gravity (Well, I was bound by gravity)
Yes, was bound by gravity
And so far from the moon
So far from the moon
