Back in '49 2049
We left the Earth a marble floating in the dark
Last rocket out headed for Mars
Tucked my kids into their bunks
Kissed my wife
Things got bad voices got hoarse
We tipped the scales a little too far off this time
Word came down take what you can
Tell your families what you have to
The time is now the time is now
We all dream the beautiful dream
Tell a story to your children
Of a world thats yet to be
We believed there'd never come a time
When that would not be so
When that would not be so
Other rockets came fueled by hope
To an ancient world to try and start again
A handful of seeds thrown to the stars
From a flower that had faded
Lost it's bloom
Chorus
I went down to the red canals
My reflection told me everything I knew
So come gather 'round lay down the blanket
We're on a million year picnic
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
