Countdown - Rush[00:00:00]
Written by:Geddy Lee/Alex Lifeson/Neil Peart[00:00:00]
Lit up with anticipation[00:00:47]
We arrive at the launching site[00:00:51]
The sky is still dark nearing dawn[00:00:54]
On the Florida coastline[00:00:58]
Circling choppers slash the night[00:01:02]
With roving searchlight beams[00:01:05]
This magic day when superscience[00:01:09]
Mingles with the bright stuff of dreams[00:01:13]
Floodlit in the hazy distance[00:01:31]
The star of this unearthly show[00:01:34]
Venting vapours like the breath[00:01:38]
Of a sleeping white dragon[00:01:41]
Crackling speakers voices tense[00:01:45]
Resume the final count[00:01:49]
All systems check T minus nine[00:01:52]
As the sun and the drama start to mount[00:01:55]
The air is charged a humid motionless mass[00:02:14]
The crowds and the cameras[00:02:22]
The cars full of spectators pass[00:02:25]
Excitement so thick you could cut it with a knife[00:02:29]
Technology high on the leading edge of life[00:02:36]
The earth beneath us starts to tremble[00:03:19]
With the spreading of a low black cloud[00:03:23]
A thunderous roar shakes the air[00:03:26]
Like the whole world exploding[00:03:29]
Scorching blast of golden fire[00:03:34]
As it slowly leaves the ground[00:03:37]
Tears away with a mighty force[00:03:41]
The air is shattered by the awesome sound[00:03:44]
Excitement so thick you could cut it with a knife[00:04:03]
Technology high on the leading edge of life[00:04:10]
Like a pillar of cloud the smoke lingers[00:04:17]
High in the air[00:04:22]
In fascination with the eyes of the world[00:04:24]
We stare[00:04:30]
