Give me one tall ship to sail
A star to guide her by
Let me orbit unknown worlds a thousand miles high
My lover is a virgin queen, the Gods gave her to me
A ship, without a boon or sail
Who rules an endless sea
Both I and King Ulysses weren't content upon the shore
With hearts so big to sing, we'd need a million years or more
The salty winds against his brow
Aboard his one true bride
On wings of space the Sirens sing
Years after he has died
For I am a soldier
The battle I abhor
I wage my war with ignorance as through the void I soar
I wear my heart out on my sleeve my dreams within my soul
With wisdom I must lead these men as
Endless night unfolds
For I've a mighty ship to sail
We rule an endless sky
A universe of stars at my command to guide her by
The shores of dusty Troy my aim
Of Crete, and lost Cyrene
The ancient hero's song to sing
Escorted by my queen
