15 The Final Frontier - Iron Maiden

I try to call the Earth's command,
Desperation in my voice.
I'm drifting way off course now
With very little choice.

The loneliness is hard to bear,
I try to calm my fear.
Just hoping, any second now,
Some contact filters through.

Desperate calls
Signal back from Satellite
As my life flashes
Right in front of me.

Try again, must get through.
Hear me now
For I've very little time.
Not much time, hear my call.
Please get through, I am here.

I'm stranded in space,
I'm lost with a trace.
I haven't a chance of getting away.

Too close to the Sun,
I surely will burn
Like Icarus before me,
Or so legend goes.

I think of my life,
Reliving my past.
There's nothing but wait
'Til my time comes.

I've had a good life,
I'd do it again.
Maybe I'll come back
Some time afresh.

For I have lived my life to the full,
I have no regrets.
But I wish I could talk to my family
To tell them one last goodbye.

The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier

If I could survive
To live one more time
I wouldn't be changing
A thing at all.

Done more in my life
Than some do in ten,
I'd go back and do it
All over again.

For I have lived my life to the full,
I have no regrets.
But I wish I could talk to my family
And tell them that one last goodbye.

The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier

There isn't much time,
Must say my last rites.
Nobody is here to
Read them to me.

Must say my goodbyes,
If only a line,
A message to tell them
In case they might find

For I have lived my life to the full,
I have no regrets.
But I wish I could talk to my family
To tell them that one last goodbye.

The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier

The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier
The final frontier
