Me:
Talked to a friend one lonely day
Told me that he was going away
He's got to live some other place

Him:
I can't stay here another day
And to you I say
Tomorrow I leave for outer space
Maybe I'll move to Mars
Maybe I'll move to Mars

Me:
Naturally I was quite surprised
When I looked into his eyes
To see he was quite sincere

Him:
All that I have to say
Mars is not so far away
How we will get there is quite clear
Maybe I'll move to Mars
Maybe I'll move to Mars
One step closer to the stars
Maybe I'll move to Mars

Me:
How will we get there?
How will we get there?
I can't believe that what you say is true
And I can't leave
I've got too much to do

Him:
Oh we can get there, we have found a way
We're all prepared and we can leave today
Me and my friends have worked for years
And we have planned well, have no fears

Me:
How will we get there?
Him:
We have found a way
Me:
How will we get there?
Him:
We can leave today
Me and my friends have planned most properly
We have built a ship that floats on gravity

Me:
And then he turned and walked away
Can't tell you how I regret that day
I've not seen him for years

Him:
I sent a card today to my friend so far away
Having a nice time wish that you were here
Maybe I'll move to Mars
Maybe I'll move to Mars
One step closer to the stars
Maybe I'll move to Mars
