The Black Swan

Lyrics

Travelling on Space Highway One Three long years to this day A billion million trillion miles Home is a long, long way away From bow to stern she's 20 miles long Ten miles high and wide A beautiful swan in a silent sea No water to slow her down Sometimes it seems we're motionless Caught between time and space Other times star systems rush headlong by Stallions who must win the race No earthly sound can penetrate This black and endless void Only thoughts and dreams Of the unborn dead Fill your body and fill your mind Every day now is quiet and calm Like a lull before the storm And people they shop at the market place And the ship moves ever ever on If ever we come to our promised land Gotta take the shuttle craft For the black swan never ever comes to rest Never stops to say goodbye
