She grew like a flower
Now she's pulling up her roots
She's trading in those small town shoes for some astronaut boots
Her daddy says we'll miss you
Just don't forget this place
You better send us back a postcard when you hit the Milky Way
Now the countdown has begun
And its 5 4 3 2 1
She's gonna run into the sun
Breakthrough the atmosphere
Dance with the stars hang out on mars
Light-years away from here
She's finding her place up there in space
She wont be back here soon
No she's not going home
Until she leaves
Footprints on the moon
She's waited for this moment
Since she was just a little girl
She knows there is something out there for her
That's bigger than this world
Now she's chasing down those comets
She's going to catch them one by one
And she'll get to where she's going
If she can just hold on
She's gonna run into the sun
Breakthrough the atmosphere
Dance with the stars hang out on mars
Light-years away from here
She's finding her place up there in space
She wont be back here soon
No she's not going home
Until she leaves
Footprints on the moon
You've come so far
You know who you are
Up so high but you can't look down
If you fall get up
Got to keep your head up now
She's gonna run into like the sun
Breakthrough the atmosphere
Dance with the stars hang out on mars
Light-years away from here
Finding her place up there in space
She wont be back here soon
No she's not going home
Until she leaves
Footprints on the moon
Footprints on the moon
Ah yeah
Footprints on the moon
No she's not going home
Until she leaves
Footprints on the moon
