Keep Flying

You came into our lives
And captured our hearts
With your short lived life
It's sad we are apart
For us, the dream will always be
The love will always be alive
For if there is one thing we've learned
From us, they can't take away the sky

His name is Malcolm Reynolds
His ship, Serenity
For it's a piece of heaven
In the cold, dark galaxy
Jayne's the mercenary
We're never sure the side he's on
Doctor Simon and his sister
Have taken to the run
Kaylee's the cute mechanic
Wash, pilot extrodinaire
The Shepherd hopes to change some lives
Or find himself out there
Zoe is as loyal as they come
A longtime faithful friend
Inara the beautiful Companion
Who won't admit she'll love him to the end

Out there in space
They all struggle to survive
Depending on one another
Entrusting to them their lives
Captain Mal may be their leader
But just as all families do
They all need each other
To help them follow through
For that's what it means
To live on a Firefly
Having someone to watch your back
Someone to run with, across the sky

Keep flying
For that's best what you can do
Keep shining
And we're always be there with you
Keep flying
Soaring among the stars
Keep shining
Whereever you'll be, that's where we are
