Childhood Dreams
(verse 1):	`Visions of the universe Through the eyes of a child It was a cosmic revelation The comet of '96`
(refrain):	`Some childhood dreams never die They just keep you wondering why Some childhood dreams fall from the sky They always seem to mystify`
(verse 2):	`Visions in my mind Stir the child in me The day that changed my life So long ago`
(refrain)...
(tag):	`Some adult schemes Try to apply the magic The magic....`

Got To Get Off
(verse 1):	`Too many people On this Earth No more room to breathe Too many people Giving birth No more food to eat`
(refrain):	`How I long To be like a comet A free and wandering spirit How I long To follow the stars Got to Get off, Got to get Off Like everyone else I gotta Get off, Got to get Off`
(verse 2):	`Too many missiles On this Earth Yet they keep building more To many crises Bring dearth Better be ready for war`
(refrain)...
(bridge):	`Life can be much better If we work together Better start today Everybody's reaching All of us are seeking Some go all the way... Got to Get off, Got to get Off Like everyone else I gotta Get off, Got to get Off`

No Turning Back
(refrain):	`There ain't no turnin' Turnin' Back You can't return the past We must keep movin' Movin' fast And make the present last We don't need to be Chained by gravity Start the countdown now...`
(verse 1):	`A long lonely journey Lies ahead Past the outer regions Our children will take over The dream... In our starship Named "Columbus" We go searching far...`
(refrain)...
(verse 2):	`We had to leave some loved ones Behind It's hard not to remember Of things that are forever So long... I will miss you But we must carry on We are growing And we will learn so much We can't waste any time`
(refrain)...

Celestial Lover
`Astral Angel Be my celestial lover We could make love Without falling So let's be together It's our calling You're my Venus I'm your Mars So let's make love Amongst the stars Celestial Lover`
`Floating on this Tiny island Through the vastness Of the universe You're all I see You're radiating beauty Shines through me Celestial lover`

Unknown Territory
(verse 1):	`We've never been here before May never be here again We're only passing through We have to see what is there Don't want to be unaware We'll leave our mark Wherever we go And we're headed for...`
(refrain):	`Unknown territory Uncharted space Unknown territory What do we face? Unknown territory Uncharted, forbidden Can't stay away...`
(verse 2):	`Maybe we'll even succeed In finding all that we need To save humanity Or we may face battlefire From things that aren't so friendly You never know What lies ahead We are entering...`
(refrain)...
(bridge):	`We will calm the firestorm As we terraform This unknown territory Unknown territory...`
(refrain)...
