Lyrics:
There's a darkness out between the stars that any eye can see There's a deeper dark within me where no light will ever be There's an empty place beside me where my lover ought to stand There's a burning sun before me and the throttle's in my hand Two days ago I lost him on a world without a name As we touched the land to claim it for the thousandth time the same Then I left him but a moment and I did not see him fall I know only that I failed him, never heard him final call I dug her grave in alien ground in the shade of alien wood And I touched him there one final time and I said what words I could Let that cold world hold him gently for he came so far to die Then I took the ship that was our home and blasted for the sky But deep space holds no comfort for one broken and alone And our ship held only memories of the joys that we once had known And I could not live without him in a life no longer whole So I chose to die by starlight and let fire cleanse my soul And now the screens grow blinding bright, the fires burn ahead The hull around me whispers as it glows an angry red There's a high cold wind behind me as if starships to could cry But my hand is cold and steady for the time has come to die But now my love comes back to me 'cross gulfs I'll never know And I hear his voice within me and I hear him saying no And I pull the throttle to me and the forward thrusters burn And the ship cries out in agony as she fights to make the turn My vision starts to fail me as the forces mount and grow And I wonder when the ship will fail and I wonder if I'll know Then the screens before me darken and a coolness strikes my face Then there's nothing left before me but the endless depths of space There's a darkness out between the stars that any eye can see But there's light within that darkness touches even a fool like me For I know my love forgives me and I know he loves me still Once we roamed the stars together. Now I know we always will
