Dan Dare (Pilot Of The Future) — текст песни (Elton John)

Can you tell me how old Dan might have done it
If he`d been here now, holy cow
My stars might have been read on the planet Mars
Because I don`t have foresight to see
If we still be together in the twenty first
In the twenty first century

He`s our flying ace, pilot of the future
In an endless space, holy cow
My eyes never saw a rocket that was quite that size
Because I don`t have the energy
To be cat and mouse for the champions
For the champions of destiny

So long captain Dan
I fail to see what motivates your hands
Goodbye restless night
You know I loved Dan Dare, but I couldn`t make his flight
So long, so long

Dan Dare doesn`t know it
He doesn`t know it
He doesn`t know it
But I liked the Mekon
