The Transit Of Venus Across The Sun

A fault in time and place

A black drop at the edge of the Sun

The stars all clouded out

Starlight never breaking through



Here be dragons taking flight

And demons through the long nights;

The sky all fallen in

Nothing was ever the same again



[Chorus]

Set a course for the stars

Reaching out for the far things

Taking flight to the distance

Never meaning to return



Low on the horizon

The setting of the evening star

The light that guides him home

Is fading once again



[Chorus]



"Vellamo;

Alpha Regio-shtar Terra;

Beta Regio-Fufei;

Akka-thena"



So many words left unsaid

So many deeds left undone

The transit of Venus across the Sun



So many words left unsaid

So many deeds left undone

So many tales without an end

The transit of Venus across the Sun
