Back To the Milky Way

We hold light in our hands
Leave all that we touch with a lasting brand
We are the sail to any vehicle of change
The tempo to progress in the space age

Our soul is heat, passion and courage
In sync with the orbit, integrity and knowledge 
Our heart is a big, warm, life-giving solar
Our mind a pure, calm, desolate polar

When we’re happy we spin and sing
When we dance we’re high on a wing
When we’re afraid we comfort and pray
For the right path back to the Milky way

We have the face of the moon
The wide smile of the open ocean
We have been kissed by the sun
We are human, we are one

We are intentional 
We are elemental
We are international
We are universal
