Belle & Sebastian - A Space Boy Dream lyrics

I dreamt I had to go to Mars. I'm always kidding on about going to Mars for the day But faced with the reality of it, in a dream, i was terrified. And it wasn't going to be like a moon trip There was three of us going, but we couldn't all go on the same ship We had to go one at a time with a day between us. I had to go first, and it was the thought of pa**ing through all that black space All the darkness with nothing in it, and then being the first one to land there, all alone... I knew it was supposed to be all dark around, with just a red surface But what if I got there and it was light, all civilised and populated and stuff? So I made a plan. The other astronauts were going to be my dad and my sister And my dad would come first after me So i decided when i landed i would just stay in my seat until he got there And then we could get out together and have a look around And see what sort of things were there. And when I woke up and I was lying in the darkness, I thought I had landed. And I just lay still for a while, waiting for my dad to get there too.
