Houston Lyrics - American Child - Phil Vassar

It's been three days, two hours and a minute 

Since she blasted off breaking every speed limit 

As fast and far away from me as she could get 

Well, she said, "You'll straighten up one way or another 

The Don't Mess With Texas bumper sticker on the bumper" 

Said it all as she drove off into the red sunset 

She was right and I've learned my lesson 

Here on out, I'm a man on a mission 

Houston, we have a problem 

If you can put a man on the moon 

I'm sure there's something you can do 

To help a love a little off course 

Well, I'm losin' her, heaven knows I can't do that 

I need her back so come in Houston, we have a problem 

She left with a suitcase full of resentment 

She told me that I was afraid of commitment 

She said "Don't call me baby", I'll call you 

Well, it's been days and I ain't heard nothing 

Somebody's just got to do something 

Houston, we have a problem 

If you can put a man on the moon 

I'm sure there's something you can do 

To help a love a little off course 

Well, I'm losin' her, heaven knows I can't do that 

I need her back so come in Houston, we have a problem 

If I could do anything I would give everything 

To make her come home 

I only need a chance to say if I could find a way 

To let her know 

Come in Houston, we have a problem 

If you can put a man on the moon 

I'm sure there's something you can do 

To help a love a little off course 

Well, I'm losin' her, heaven knows I can't do that 

I need her back so come in Houston, we have a problem 

We have a problem
