Who Are You?
Light years away, cross the void of space
From beyond the heavens, from a distant star.
You've technology that would dazzle
We wonder who you are.
Since the dawn of time, we've recorded your visits
You've walked among us and you've watched us from afar.
We've seen you streak cross our skies
We wonder who you are.
If harm you've meant us, by now we'd surely know
To you, were creatures to be studied, like specimens in a jar.
To some, your figments of our imagination, and still
We wonder who you are.
Our darkened skies are filled, with the beauty of your light
Your home is a distant planet, someplace we call a star.
Until such time as you think we're ready
We wonder who you are.
The question has been asked, are we alone
The answer comes in streaks of light from afar
We couldn't possibly be the only planet with life
We wonder who you are.
