I was marooned and losing time
three big moons held the sky
no oxygen in the air
reserve tanks running dry
do I venture on in search of life?
or do I play it safe here?
either way I'll die

you descended from the sky
and by the sparkles that sparkled in your eyes
I knew you saw what I was thinking
and your smile didn't mind

all of the years that had gone by
before you arrived
had stripped away my precious life
you wrapped yourself around me
and held me tight

three big moons held the sky
and by the sparkles that sparkled in your eyes
there was just one perfect night
and then I died right in your arms

it was too soon
you were too late
