[Verse] He’s got a rocket but no map to guide Dreams of the moon keep him up at night Stars whisper secrets he can’t quite hear His engines roar but he's stuck in fear [Chorus] Rocket man Rocket man Reach the moon if you can Hard and long The road you face But you’re destined for that space [Verse 2] Fuel runs low but his heart burns bright Each failure’s a lesson Not a final flight He stumbles He falls But he won’t stay down He’s chasing the cosmos Not some earthly crown [Prechorus] Every setback Every tear Closer now The moon draws near [Chorus] Rocket man Rocket man Reach the moon if you can Hard and long The road you face But you’re destined for that space [Bridge] Gravity pulls But his will pulls stronger The road is hard But he won’t wait longer The stars above hum a quiet song Telling him he’s been right all along
