[intro]
Aw, na na na, na na na na
We are entirely, entirely in awe
Aw, na na na, na na na na
In the wonder, in the wonder of it all
[whistling]
[whoosh]
[Verse 1:]
The year was sixteen-nine
And a man named Galilei,
Set his mind to see up close
The beauty of the sky
A keen and curious mind,
Though ‘twas misunderstood
Setting lenses ground so fine,
In a tube of humble wood
Adjusting now the focus
As he turned it to the sky
Oh, what wonders did await,
His bright and eager eye!
He saw the moons of Jupiter
Four pinpricks in the night
Proved the Earth was movin' 'round
Like a Ferris Wheel of life
[Chorus:]
We are skyward-gazing pioneers
Peering through our glass
Peeling back the mystery
Revealing truth at last
From Galileo's moons
To Hubble's cosmic sights
They blazed a trail for all of us
To know the endless night
And we’re entirely in awe
In the wonder of it all
Aw, na na na, na na na na
We are entirely, entirely in awe
Aw, na na na, na na na na
In the wonder, in the wonder of it all
[whistling]
[Verse 2:]
William Herschel captured light
Invisible but real,
A song his eyes could not surmise,
A ghost that he could feel
He ventured past the spectral edge,
Where human light did fade,
Unveiling warmth in special waves,
Between the solar rays
And what of Edwin Hubble?
With a mighty cosmic scope!
He gazed beyond the Milky Way,
From his California home
[Bridge]
The universe is growing
In an endless outward flight,
From the Pillars of Creation
To the ends of space and time
[Chorus]
[whoosh]
[Verse 3:]
We remember all the dreamers
Who brought the sky to earth
With parallax and parsecs,
And equations full of worth.
The universe appearing
To our little primate sight
Though space be cold we bask here
In an understanding light
Now standing here in wonder
At the edge of history
With telescopes and satellites
Such marvels we can see
Nebulae and planets
And galaxies surround
Like the ones who came before us,
Our eyes fixed upward bound
[Chorus]
[whistling and hand clapping]
