Odysseus

Ten years of adventure
Came to a happy end
And Odysseus got back
To his faithful wife
He was a valiant chief
And such a loyal friend
We felt proud he'd stayed alive

Captain, stop your spaceship
We are home at last
Home at last
It's time to cool the engines
Bow down to the stars
To the stars
And though we're all much older
We have done enough
Our journey's over - let's get off

Was that real or was it just
A dreamlike myth?
The Cyclops and the Sirens
And Calypso Nymph
Circe, gods and monsters
Long nights out of bed
The ghosts within the dark lands
Of the living dead

Lots of our companions
Fell dead on battle fields
And Odysseus led us
Forward to each fight
You'll come back with your shield
Or dead upon your shield
It is always do or die

Captain, leave the spaceship
Wa are home today
Home today
As heroes we'll be worshipped
At the Great Parade
Great Parade
And though we're all much older
We're still young at heart
At ease now, soldiers, no more fight
Was that real or was it just
A dreamlike myth?

The mist of time will cover and erase
The memories of what was yesterday
We shall be gone forever in a while
The journey's over, so goodbye m
