Telescope

[Verse 1]
I see Jupiter, Venus and Mars
The Milky Way and other millions of stars
A brilliant moon gives me cause to hope
Things I see through my telescope
Things I see through my telescope

[Verse 2]
I see Saturn and her radiant rings
I see galaxies and so many things
A computer trying to count them could never cope
Things I see through my telescope
Things I see through my telescope

[Chorus]
I can't help by marvel at the beauty I see
These celestial wonders sure do have a hold on me
No I can’t run, I can't get away
But then why would I want to?
I've got a perfect view just light-years away

[Verse 3]
A small cluster of stars catches my eye
The Seven Sisters smile and then say goodbye
The stunning lunar eclipse sure does push the envelope
Things I see through my telescope
Things I see through my telescope

[Verse 4]
The inviting night sky draws me in deep
It roars to life while the rest of the world sleeps
My head spins with wonder, something like a gyroscope
Things I see through my telescope
Things I see through my telescope

[Chorus]
I can’t help by marvel at the beauty I see
These celestial wonders sure do have a hold on me
No I can't run, I can't get away
But then why would I want to?
I've got a perfect view just light-years away

[Verse 5]
A bright shooting star comes into view
Lasting no more than a second or two
The Orion Nebula, colors swirl like a kaleidoscope
Things I see through my telescope
Things I see through my telescope

[Chorus]
I can't help by marvel at the beauty I see
These celestial wonders sure do have a hold on me
No I can't run, I can't get away
But then why would I want to?
I've got a perfect view just light-years away

[Outro]
But then why would I want to?
I’ve got a perfect view just light-years away
