I thought that life would be easier, easier than this
I thought that I'd grow fast, grow strong, not stuck

Sunlight beyond the horizon
Moonlight when it's pitch black
Hard times are sometimes good

Well I was gonna be an astronaut
Fly high above
And leave all fear behind
I was gonna be an astronaut
Fly high above
And leave all fear behind

Whatever happened to that?
Late morning, long nights
Ooh, high hopes, long falls

But who knows?
Everyone seems lost these days
Who knows?
Am I the only one?
Hard times are sometimes good

Well I was gonna be an astronaut
Fly high above
And leave all fear behind
I was gonna be an astronaut
Fly high above
And leave all fear behind

Well I wandered onto those long lost dreams
I owe it to you to be hopeless
And I made a promise I'll keep
I will never lose hope
I will never lose hope
No, I will never lose hope

No, I will never lose hope
I was gonna be an astronaut
Fly high above
