NO SPACE LIKE HOME
by Dave Easter copyright 6/29/99
IN THIS SHIP I HAVE SPENT MY LIFE
TRAVELING NEAR THE SPEED OF LIGHT
OUR WORLD HIT BY AN ASTEROID
ALL WE KNOW WAS DESTROYED
JUST A FEW OF US GOT AWAY
AND HERE WE SIT FROM DAY TO DAY
CAN'T GO BACK TO MY PLACE OF BIRTH
BARREN PLANET ONCE CALLED EARTH
IN THIS SHIP AND GOD WE TRUST
TO THE UNKNOWN OUR ENGINES THRUST
HEADED FOR A DISTANT STAR
TEN MORE YEARS REALLY AIN'T THAT FAR
ALL THAT'S LEFT OF THE HUMAN RACE
ON A SHIP HERE IN OUTER SPACE
IT'S UP TO US WE MUST SURVIVE
GOT TO KEEP THE SPECIES ALIVE
TRAVELERS TO A NEW FRONTIER
SEARCHING FOR A NEW HOME THERE
PAST THE GALAXIES AND NEBULAE
HOPING ALL THIS IS NOT IN VAIN
CAST YOUR SEEDS INTO THE WIND
AND WONDER HOW THE STORY ENDS
HEADED FOR A DISTANT STAR
TEN MORE YEARS REALLY AIN'T THAT FAR
