Fire In The Sky Lyrics - Kristoph Klover

Prometheus, they say, brought God's fire down to man 

And we've caught it, tamed it, trained it since our history began 

Now we're going back to Heaven just to look Him in the eye 

And there's a thunder 'cross the land and a fire in the sky 

Gagarin was the first back in 1961 

When, like Icarus, undaunted, he climbed to reach the sun 

And he knew he might not make it, for it's never hard to die 

But he lifted off the pad and rode a fire in the sky 

Yet a higher goal was calling and we vowed to reach it soon 

And we gave ourselves a decade to put fire on the moon 

And Apollo told the world we can do it if we try 

There was one small step and a fire in the sky

Tom Petty's Most Iconic Lyrics 

I dreamed last night of a little boy's first spaceflight 

Burned into me, watching the black-and-white TV 

There was a fire in the sky 

I'll remember until I die 

A fire in the sky 

A fire in the sky 

Then two decades from Gagarin, twenty years to the day 

Came a shuttle named Columbia to open up the way 

And they said she's just a truck, but she's a truck that's aimin' high 

See her big jets burning, see her fire in the sky 

Yet the gods do not give lightly of the powers they have made 

And with Challenger and seven, once again the price is paid 

Though a nation watched her falling, yet a world could only cry 

As they passed from us to glory, riding fire in the sky

For no cradle lasts forever, every bird must learn to fly 

And we're goin' to the stars, see our fire in the sky 

Yes, we're going to the stars, see our fire in the sky
