Somewhere, out there, 
Beyond the atmosphere, 
Someone’s flashing lasers, 
In search of life out here.

Somewhere, out there, 
Someone’s making a wish, 
And searching through the airwaves 
With a big rotating dish.

And even though I know 
How very far apart we are, 
It helps to think you might be aiming 
At the same wrong star.

And as I watch antennas scan 
The stars as they wheel by, 
I like to think you’re sweeping 
Through the same wrong stretch of sky.

Somewhere, out there, 
Though time tests our resolves, 
We’ll find one another ... 
Somewhere out there, out where life 
Evolves.
