Anne Harlan Prather - Thoughts of a Homeless Alien lyrics

I've have tried to be so careful I've not spoken from that day That the earth's sweet winds seduced me And swayed me from my way I've walked only in the sun's bright rays And banished all thought of my traveller's ways I can't go home, can no longer fly Mid the stars that are dimmed by an earthling sky The stars at night, like angels Try to call me from my sleep And I long to draw the curtains back And listen while they speak Can you tell me if my world is well And sing me of that which you cannot tell And weep for the traveller who fell from space To be trapped for all time on this lonely place But the stars, they sing too strongly Of the home I'll no more know Though I chose to make my visit here I want so to chose to go So I can't see the light of the flames of space Or I wander the night with my tears on my face I sorry I roamed from my star of birth To be lost, mute and cold, beneath the skies of earth I wish on the stars I will never see Praying no more will be lost like me
