lyrics

I touched down on Titan back in 2634
Just another miner out to make a score
Hydrocarbons, even more than we need
To power the fastest ships at ever faster speeds

You touch down on Titan and they hand you the keys
To a drilling rig and a map of the seas
They say good luck and send you off on your way
They don't tell you that you'll never escape (to say)

Goodbye Orange Skies (Goodbye)

I dream of green Europa
Terraformed and bright
I dream of starry skies
And cinnamon scented nights

Goodbye Orange Skies (Goodbye)

Days and nights on Titan are exactly the same
Just boring orange light and gasoline rain
Years pass so slowly, but somehow rush by
I'm here with nothing to show in 2649

Fifteen years on Titan, I played by the rules
They kept 10 years of my profits, "to pay for the tools"
I finally paid off those scumbags, so now I can fly
I just have to get through one last run alive (to say)

Goodbye Orange Skies (Goodbye)
