about

I think every filker has a song about longing to go to space. This is mine.

lyrics

Star dreamer running free
In the blackest night,
Where are the stars you see?
Where is the light?

Fire rider climbing high
On the golden stair,
Will we just wave goodbye?
Will we be there?

From the time we first name the stars
To the time that we die,
Even though we may cling to Earth
We must leave the Earth someday and learn to fly.

Night singer on the shore
Of the open sea,
Why do you wait no more?
Why don't you wait for me?

From the time we first name the stars
To the time that we die,
Even though we may cling to Earth
We must leave the Earth someday and learn to fly.

Night singer on the shore
Of the open sea,
Why do you wait no more?
Why don't you wait for me?
