Mermaids From Their Moons

In the silence of my room

If I close my eyes I can hear voices like a whisper

Someone’s calling

Like old mermaids from their moons

Singing melodies to those who pass by, then surrender

My reason’s falling…

Silent’s the empty dark cosmos

As silent we sail through the stars

The planets seem like lost islands

Floating in a transient sea

Like Ulysses and his sailors

Now we face our Odyssey

Roaming lost we search a harbor

Trying to keep our sanity

In the silence of my room

If I close my eyes I ca n hear voices like a whisper

Someone’s calling

Like old mermaids from their moons

Singing melodies to those who pass by, then surrender

My reason’s falling…

Time in our cabins goes slowly

All we can do is to wait and hope

Now we face our Odyssey

Roaming lost we search a harbor

Trying to keep our sanity

In the silence of my room

If I close my eyes I can hear voices like a whisper

Someone’s calling

Like old mermaids from their moons

Singing melodies to those who pass by, then surrender

My reason’s falling…
