Out there on the ebbing tide
Turning to the setting sun
Out into the Great Sea
To the pillars and then further on
Sailing north beyond the gates
Off the charts and out of time
Wanderers beneath the stars
Voyagers on unknown paths
Heading further out
To walk a distant shoreline
To reach the source of a river
The Mountains of the Moon
Beyond the next headland
Over the far horizon
Out into the open seas
To find out who we are
Measuring the shadows
Guided by the stars and sounding weights
Track the arrow-flight of birds
To read the signs, the distant trace
Men changed into standing stones
And water turned to ice
Where the sun has gone to rest
A wilderness, an emptiness
Heading further out
To walk a distant shoreline
To reach the source of a river
The Mountains of the Moon
Beyond the next headland
Over the far horizon
Out under the open skies
See how far we've come
With the sounds of distant Earth
And a trace of love
Carried out to the heavens above
Dare to wonder
Dare to try
Free from the bonds of the sun
Flying further on
50 moons and four worlds
Sketches made in fading light
Ten miles a second
Out there in the space between the stars
Set a course for the brightest world
An ocean moon
Seek the story of life
Before the last long burn is done
Before a distant end
Before the final act
Diving through the rings
A heartbeat reaching out to home
No land, no brave new world
Just signals running out of time
Go further on
Out to the stars
All systems down
Silent and strong
Go further on
See what can be done
Where we came from
Where we will end
Here she comes
From faraway skies
Here she flies
Voyager has come home
Heading further out
To reach uncharted shorelines
Setting sail for the distant stars
The wonder of new worlds
Beyond the next headland
Over the far horizon
Out into the open skies
To find out what we are
How far we've come
How far we can go
