Why Me? Lyrics

Sittin' up here watchin' all the lights blink down below
The earth is turning, why does it go so slow?
Thinkin' bout the girl I left behind,
Houston can you hear me, or have I lost my mind?
Why me?
Why me?
I was waiting on the pad,
All systems were go,
The man up in the tower's enjoying the show,
Then I got this feeling that I never had before,
Hey let me out of here, what am I here for?
Why me?
Why me?

There must be a thousand other guys,
Must be some other way to look good in your eyes,
Why am I up here? What do they see in me?
Must be a thousand other places to be.
Why me?
(Guitar Solo)

The last man to be here was never heard from again
He won't be back this way until 2010...
Now I'm riding on a fountain of fire,
With my back to the earth I go higher and higher.
Why me?
Why me?
There must be a thousand other guys,
Must be some other way to look good in your eyes,
Why am I up here? What do they see in me?
Must be a thousand other places to be.
Why me?

Why me?
Take anyone but me.
Why me?
Take anyone but me.
Why me?
Why me?
