The Long Return

My song, The Long Return, is not concerned with setting sail on the sea, but into space.
The Long Return
All the lines are drawn, all the stones are raised.
In the tones of dawn, all the gods are praised.

All that we have known, all that we have made,
all that we have shown, we shared in fair trade.

Now we journey home on our long return.
Now we journey home on our long return.

All the signs are clear, all the lights are bright.
Over stars we steer, attain lanes for flight.

Farewell to your land, farewell to your shore,
farewell to your sand, now forevermore.

Now we journey home on our long return.
Now we journey home on our long return.

Thought it would be good, thought it could be fine,
things were as they should, when the stars were mine.

Farewell to this isle on the ocean bed.
Let us wait awhile, think of things we said.

Now we journey home on our long return.
Now we journey home on our long return.
