Close Encounter (Co-Written With James Fraser)

Galactic gases with oxygen mix Inject my pod for my mission to earth To search the galaxies and look for life Universe quadrants, many left in dearth What is that I see shining o'er the trees? A bright orb, green lights, hovering above I'll don my robe and step outside to see Could be a project of the U.S. Gov My craft lands on this planet earth In a wooded hillside above a small town My computers tell me it's near Helena Will I have been seen touching down? From this small craft a tall man emerges Slim with a broad chest and large, gentle eyes His face looks so kind, my heartbeat surges From where comes this man and the ship he flies? My ancestors were right it's a beautiful place Forests of green, that nearly touch their skies Incredible sounds resonate from their surrounds Are the people the same, or do they still despise? "Are you hurt?" I ask, hoping he'll say no I cannot help stare; his eyes mesmerize Extending my hand, he reaches, takes hold Sharp currents run through me; I'm hypnotized I sense no fear as I introduce myself My name is Semaj from a planet beyond The warmth I feel as I touched her hand A touch of humanity, two millennium in respond "You are an alien?" asked I so meekly "You look like one of us; how can that be?" But the energy coursing through my veins Said he had been sent by God lovingly We look the same but we have many differences Our bodies have evolved in certain ways Your faith and love endear me to you I know what you're thinking and what your heart displays You read my thoughts well; somehow I sense yours It seems all my life I have waited for you A "starman" has finally found his way And I vow that our friendship will prove true
