Hello!
I am not an English-speaking resident of planet Earth and therefore I can not understand the words of this rare song of my favorite musical group Rockets.
I ask you to help me write the text of this song (unless of course you understand the spoken words).
Thank you in advance.

Link to song:
https://cool.dj/song/132643-rockets/38314814-so-far/

I wrote this text using google translator.

That link does not work in United States.

Is this band from Detroit, Frane or somewhere else? Several bands use that name.

I could not find lyric yet. But I tried.

I understood only the following words in the song:
"... Across in sky... So to cry... So far... "
and that's all.
I have all songs's lirycs of this band.
But only this rare song remains a mystery to me.

How distinctly and legibly do they sing on this track?
Is this task very difficult?

The words are hard to decipher given the way they sing and the recording quality.

This is my guess at some of the words from the beginning:

as I was looking at the sky
up from the ground
looking across the sky... So to cry... So far...

thank you. I love you

love is going to be
thank you. I love so. has got to be real...
the temple, God is (or goddess) above

thank you. I love you

the temple, God is (or goddess) above
the temple, God is (or goddess) above

(Some lines I can't understand)

thank you. I love you

the temple, God is (or goddess) above

thank you. I love you

the temple, God is (or goddess) above



I could be wrong on some of this. But the repeating chorus is: thank you. I love you.


They seem like an interesting band. I might listen to some other songs later.
