spoken: of all sad words from tongue or pen
the saddest are these: “it might have been.”

it was 1969 when man first touched lunar ground
the cheering of a nation carried hope within its sound
then the day the president had dared another race
“we can and shall be first,” he said, “to live and work in sp-ce.”

and i think, where would we be if we hadn’t gone this way?
how would we be living on that other sunny day?
would we have the things that we have now, have we won or have we lost?
or would we have been here anyway, would we want to pay the cost?

in 1972 the shuttle lifted from the pad
by 1976 an l-5 colony we had
’78 we headed out, returning to the moon
establishing a lunar base and expanding through the gloom

and i think, where would we be if we hadn’t gone this way?
how would we be living on that other sunny day?
would we have the things that we have now, have we won or have we lost?
or would we have been here anyway, would we want to pay the cost?

so i look back and wonder as the earth goes sliding by
as i watch the pale sun rising in the airless lunar sky
if orwell could have seen then what i’m seeing every day
he never would have guessed that ’84 would end that way

and i think, where would we be if we hadn’t gone this way?
how would we be living on that other sunny day?
would we have the things that we have now, have we won or have we lost?
or would we have been here anyway, would we want to pay the cost?

yes, i think, where would we be if we hadn’t gone this way?
and how would we be living on that other sunny day?
would we have the things that we have now, have we won or have we lost?
or would we have been here anyway, would we want to pay the cost?
