(Verse 1) Dust on the solar sails, pulling the line Leaving the gravity we left behind Silent blue sphere shrinking down to a dot Trading the soil for a world we forgot Rockets are quiet, the engine runs low Into the dark where no rivers can flow (Chorus) Floating away from the edge of the sky Watching the satellites slowly drift by Out in the endless, out in the deep Where all of the stars have a secret to keep Weightless and waiting, suspended in time Crossing a border that has no design (Verse 2) Solar flares trace through the black of the night Glimmering cold in a pale silver light Air in the cabin is heavy and thin Counting the miles where the orbits begin No horizon to anchor our sight Lost in the glow of a distant star's flight (Chorus) Floating away from the edge of the sky Watching the satellites slowly drift by Out in the endless, out in the deep Where all of the stars have a secret to keep Weightless and waiting, suspended in time Crossing a border that has no design (Outro) Far from the shore, far from the ground Out where the shadows make never a sound Just standard engines and endless expanse Drifting forever in cosmic romance
