Lyrics

You don’t have to be an astronaut
And reach for the stars
You don’t have to be the first guy
Who finds life on mars
If you feel that outer-space is too risky for you
It’s surely not what you should do
With your life

You don’t have to live on the edge of a knife
But reach out just a little bit further
Why are you holding back
When you’ve got so much more

It’s okay
If you’re not the best dancer in the world
And it’s all right
If you can’t move to save your life
If you feel that the groove doesn’t groove with you
It’s surely not what you should do
With your life

You don’t have to live on the edge of a knife
But reach out just a little bit further
Why are you holding back
When you’ve got so much more

You can be the star of your very own fairy tale
You can be just who you are
In your dreams

You don’t have to live on the edge of a knife
But reach out just a little bit further
Why are you holding back
When you’ve got so much more
