They told me that my mind would take me far
We used to share
A brilliant dream
The sudden rise to conquer was bizarre
If you were brave
What could have been
The girl I met is drinking in a bar
She's on her own
What does it mean
Maybe there's an answer on this screen
But am I screen
But am I screen
But spare a thought for the man they left in space
He lost the human race
He stretched too far
The man they left in space
But spare a thought for the man they left in space
He lost the human race
He stretched too far
The man they left in space
You took a wrong turn
The easy route through
Too frightened to leave
The comfortable hue
The life of glory
All that you missed
All passed by can't
You won't take the risk
Making the grade
It's easy to do
But ambition failed
To ride in front of you
It started at school
They tested your mind
You failed to ignite
You got left behind
But spare a thought for the man you left in space
He lost the human race
He stretched too far
The man you left in space
