Lyrics of Major Tom (Coming Home) - Director's Cut by Peter Schilling
verse
Standing there alone, the ship is waiting
All systems are go, are you sure
Control is not convinced
But the computer has the evidence
No need to abort
The countdown starts
verse
Watching in a trance, the crew is certain
Nothing left to chance, all is working
Trying to relax, up in the capsule
Send me up a drink jokes Major Tom
The count goes on
chorus
Four, three, two, one
Earth below us
Drifting falling
Floating weightless
Calling, calling home
verse
Second stage is cut, we're now in orbit
Stabilizers up, running perfect
Starting to collect, requested data
What will it effect, when all is done
Thinks Major Tom
verse
Back at ground control, there is a problem
Go to rockets full, not responding
Hello Major Tom, are you receiving
Turn the thrusters on, we're standing by
There's no reply
chorus
Four, three, two, one
Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating, weightless
Calling, calling, home
verse
Across the stratosphere
A final message, give my wife my love
Then nothing more
verse
Far beneath the ship, the world is mourning
They don't realize, he's alive
No one understands but Major Tom sees
Now the light commands, this is my home
I'm coming home
chorus
Earth below us
Drifting falling
Floating weightless
Coming home
chorus
Earth below us
Drifting falling
Floating weightless
Coming home
chorus
Earth below us
Drifting falling
Floating weightless
Coming, coming home
