Lyrics[]

Deep underground, 
A young dwarf dreaming of a world he never knew,
He looked above, to trees and mountain height,
And saw a Moon so blue, oh-oh. 
They told him dwarves could never fly so high
They laughed and said;
"He'd fail if he tried" 
He left his home, and his life behind, 
His dream burning like a rocket inside.

So strap yourself into the rocket now, rocket now, 
Watch as the countdown seconds tick by, 
Hope and pray that you'll make it now, make it now,
You'll never know if you don't try.

So strap yourself into the rocket now, rocket now, 
You got your friends right by your side, oh-oh-oh,
Final checks then you close your eyes, 
Your dream burning, like a rocket inside.

Like a rocket inside, oh-oh, 
Your dream burning inside.

Your dream burning like a rocket, oh-oh.
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh. 

Deep underground, 
A young dwarf dreaming of a world he never knew,
He looked above, to trees and mountain height,
And saw a Moon so blue, oh-oh.
They told him dwarves could never fly so high, 
They laughed and said; 
"He'd fail if he tried" 
He left his home, and his life behind, 
His dream burning like a rocket inside. 

So strap yourself into the rocket now, rocket now, 
Watch as the countdown seconds tick by, 
Hope and pray that you'll make it now, make it now,
You'll never know if you don't try.

So strap yourself into the rocket now, rocket now (so strap yourself into the rocket), 
You got your friends right by your side, oh-oh-oh, (you got your friends by your side),
Final checks, then you close your eyes, 
Your dream burning, like a rocket inside.
