[Verse 1] Parker’s flying closer to the Sun, Riding where the solar winds run. NASA builds another way to see, Telescopes look back through history. Light arrives from stars long gone, Here on Earth, the coffee’s on. I read the news before my day— Another thing has changed its name. [Pre-Chorus] Every answer opens up a door. Do we know what we’re looking for? [Chorus] How do we keep up? How do we slow down? With our eyes upon the stars, Who’s watching over this ground? We’ve only got so much— Water, time, and air. What will we choose to build? Who will get to share? As we reach for something new, Keep a little room for me and you. [Verse 2] Quantum worlds don’t move like mine, Computers take a different kind of time. I’m still learning what those words mean, While another breakthrough fills my screen. Data centers hum all night, Rows of servers, blinking lights. They need water, they need power— What’s the cost of every hour? [Pre-Chorus] I want to learn, I want to see, But where’s a human meant to be? [Chorus] How do we keep up? How do we slow down? With our eyes upon the stars, Who’s watching over this ground? We’ve only got so much— Water, time, and air. What will we choose to build? Who will get to share? As we reach for something new, Keep a little room for me and you. [Bridge] Let the tools help heal a hand. Let discovery feed the land. Give a teacher time to teach. Bring the knowledge within reach. We can’t learn it all tonight; Leave a lamp on, share the light. Ask whose lives our choices change, And who gets left outside the gate. [Final Chorus] We can keep on reaching. We can stop and care. Put our questions on the table, Pull up another chair. We’ve only got so much— One Earth beneath our feet. May the future we’re creating Be a place we all can meet. As we reach for something new, Keep a little room for me and you. [Outro] Solar wind and a turning sky, Still so much to wonder why. Tomorrow brings another view— Tonight, I’m here with you.
