Ancient Tomes
Ancient tomes, spoke of wonders lost
Great empires fall
And worlds stranded in the empty black
Buried in the dirt, relics we find
Left there to remind
The knowledge that calls us back
On our own we were left with the galactic tides ebb
Civilization withdrawed into the void
But we remained, survived and maintained
The knowledge of the older race
And the time has come, finally done
No more do we have to wait
Ancient tomes, speak of wonders there
If bold enough to dare
To leave the warm embrace of our world behind
Here we are, ships from sacred design
From wise and bygone times
Launching into sky faster than the light
Universe we join with you again...
