Part Two (twenty years after Lift Off)
Planet Hopper

I jump from world to world
meeting beings of every type.
Living the dream
of Clarke and Adams.
I haven't been home since
I launched all those years ago.
My ship is a little worse for wear but
I think she'll make it to the next stop.
on my galactic joyride.

I am alone up here now
all by myself floating through infinity.
not gonna head back home
till I have to.
I love this peace
I have found away from that planet.

I've been taught many things
by beings of other worlds
that man never had the chance
to learn for himself.

I can just imagine
my home world now
wars and death,
Pain and misey are all that
await me there when I return
So I keep flying farther and farther away
from my home taking records oif all that
I learn and storing them i a memory block
so when finally I return I can teach the others these better ways.

My ship my only companiona galactic drifter wandering the stars
till I feel my work is done till I feel my time has come.....
on this galactic joyride.
