I am a timeship
A spaceman on a lonely journey
Where familiar places, familiar faces
like cargo, vanish with the passing
of the sun light, and the stars.
each sunset, each sunrise, racing
along on the voyage called life
And I can never meet you in that place we were before
in the events that made us smile,
because yesterday like a continent, a planet
is so far away.

the you that was yesterday.
and will I be disappointed to see you again someday,
or I disappoint you, old and grey
and all our opinions alien and strange
who we are is not who we were
and even our memories of ourselves are of another
till all those happy days are like videos
of some other's lives lived so long ago.

I am a timeship
A spaceman on a lonely journey.
We all leave each other, who we are, who we were, who we love
One light year, one yesteryear, at a time.

And die alone, on strange shores.
