Fly, Columbia
姑且借用NASA首页上的一张图作引子,Day of Remembrance。如今听这首歌倒颇有些不是滋味……>

歌词:
Fly, Columbia, Fly, Columbia
Thunder toward tomorrow on an oxygen stream
Thunder toward tomorrow, fire, flame and rocket song
Mark a new time of Man. Booster candles light the dawn
Fly, Columbia! Fly, Columbia!
Foundation of the future. Courier of dreams,
Thunder on!
Sunshine brightens the horizon. Tension rings the morning haze.
The shuttle standing proud against the wind
Nose to distant stars her delta wings will never graze
Countdown. Pulses race. The launch begins.
Fly, Columbia, Fly, Columbia
Thunder toward tomorrow on an oxygen stream
Thunder toward tomorrow, fire, flame and rocket song
Mark a new time of Man. Booster candles light the dawn
Fly, Columbia! Fly, Columbia!
Foundation of the future. Courier of dreams,
Thunder on!
Columbia, the promise of better days to come.
Columbia, new mistress of the sky
Sail an orbit free. Track the moon and chase the sun.
Fly, Columbia, for Humankind, fly.
Fly, Columbia, Fly, Columbia
Thunder toward tomorrow on an oxygen stream
Thunder toward tomorrow, fire, flame and rocket song
Mark a new time of Man. Booster candles light the dawn
Fly, Columbia! Fly, Columbia!
Foundation of the future. Courier of dreams,
Thunder on!
Thunder on!
Thunder on!
