Sixty-nine
Some years gone by
Since that night
When man broke the chains
That bound us to Earth
We found the way
To the sky
Ancient dreams
Jules Verne should have seen
Them come true
His heroes of then
Were born again
But this time they win
Gates to the sky
We entered them at night
Gates to the sky
One night in '69
Counting down
Down to the sound of ignition
Time was standing still
As the countdown hit ten
Last check on frequency
Restless breath
Your nerves on their knees
As they fly
The eyes of the world
Were watching them go
And I saw the show
Gates to the sky
We entered them at night
Gates to the sky
One night in '69
