As I stare into the stars,
In this darkness alone,
On an alien world,
With no way home…
And it's Christmas, it's Christmas again.
Has my hope sailed away in wintery winds?
Merry Christmas from some galaxy,
And if I don't see you, then happy New Year's Eve.
My vestibule of sorrow,
The cave and the hearth,
With no Christmas tree
Or nativity's warmth.
And it's Christmas, it's Christmas again.
Has my hope sailed away in wintery winds?
Merry Christmas from some galaxy,
And if I don't see you, then happy New Year's Eve.
'Cause I'm stranded here and I may never leave,
So merry Christmas and happy New Year's Eve.
Singing to the sky
A feeble pirate's cry,
"Bring me love on Christmas"
Ohhh
Sailing on the endless starry sea,
I gather 'round the warmth of memory.
So merry Christmas from some galaxy,
And if I don't see you, then happy New Year's Eve.
'Cause I'm stranded here and I may never leave,
So merry Christmas and happy New Year's Eve.
Merry Christmas from some galaxy.
It's been 47 years since New Tears Eve.
'Cause I'm stranded here and I may never leave,
And if I don't see you, then maybe you'll see me
On Christmas…
On Christmas…
