I blame you for the moonlit sky 
and the dream that died 
with the eagles flight 
I blame you for the moonlit nights 
when I wonder why 
are the seas still dry? 
don't blame this sleeping satellite 

did we fly to the moon too soon? 
did we squander the chance? 
in the rush of the race 
the reason we chase is lost in romance 
and still we try 
to justify the waste 
for a taste of man's greatest adventure 

I blame you for the moonlit sky 
and the dream that died 
with the eagles flight 
I blame you for the moonlit nights 
when I wonder why 
are the seas still dry? 
don't blame this sleeping satellite 

have we lost what it takes to advance? 
have we peak too soon? 
if the world is so great 
then why does it scream under a blue moon? 
we wonder why 
if the earth's sacrificed 
for the price of its greatest treasure 

I blame you for the moonlit sky 
and the dream that died 
with the eagles flight 
I blame you for the moonlit nights 
when I wonder why 
are the seas still dry? 
don't blame this sleeping satellite 

and when we shoot for the stars 
what a giant step 
have we got what it takes 
to carry the weight of this concept? 
or pass it by 
like a shot in the dark 
miss the mark with a sense of adventure 

I blame you for the moonlit sky 
and the dream that died 
with the eagles flight 
I blame you for the moonlit nights 
when I wonder why 
are the seas still dry? 
don't blame this sleeping satellite
