My vessel was a speck of stardust unchained from its Sun Telemetry and course uncharted, crew remaining: one A navigational mishap made me lose sight of her light And flung me through the void into the everlasting night
I tumbled through oblivion away from all known suns No up or down, no left or right, my navigation gone All other functions put to death, save one enduring vow I'd see this journey to the end, as long as breath allows
Strange worlds and aeons greeted me along the aether way In hyperspace, it's all the same, and time itself's astray My heart and soul began to starve, so I lay down in cold sleep And let the stasis take my life; I'd no strength left to weep
But came the shaking and the shock, alarms blared left and right And suddenly the cockpit filled with all-consuming light I knew that glow, I knew that warmth, I recognized it all I knew that spectrum wrought in love, your wavelength's clarion call
I cannot know the laws that God has written in the stars Save one enduring truth that beats in distant quasar hearts Your love, it resonates with mine, across the depths of space Though time dilates and space contracts, our love remains in place
Though light years, gigaparsecs came between us in the void My sun has captured me again, you've all my fears destroyed Your gravity's almighty pull has shattered this dark tomb And floating me on cosmic waves, your orbit brought me home
