Isolation can be found in massive peaks above the ground
Jewel of heaven, our own little world within its orbit safely curled
Our close companion that reflects the nights, pulls our tides, lights midnight rides
Calls us back to search dry seas, craters of ages and cliffs like these

Scale the range of those barren heights
Like dragon's teeth in the cold dark nights
They pierce black skies like midnight noon
Austere and lovely, mountains of the moon

We will return to this forgotten land that we see each evening so close at hand
The one named Selene, unrivaled queen
Who travels the night sky full bright then unseen
Fearing our sanity, held in her sway, our sensible caution will be heeded this day
Changing her face in the sun's varied light, the constant reminder, little sister at night

Scale the range of those barren heights
Like dragon's teeth in the cold dark nights
They pierce black skies like midnight noon
Austere and lovely, mountains of the moon

From high above the lunar plain we'll see
A surface of dust as far as can be
Frozen for eons like a little ghost world
The crags, the valleys and the mountains unfurled

Master of the lonely cliffs can survey
Uncountable galaxies spread out in array
Time means nothing when the worlds we await
The need to release ourselves clear of the gate

We'll return someday to the flag that was planted
Follow the footprints that our forerunners granted
Landers that stand and then were abandoned, traces of mankind
The ships they commanded
There may come a renaissance of travel in space
Our grandchildren will have the urgency to embrace
We'll make it our mission to journey the plain but this time we'll have the plans to remain

Scale the range of those barren heights
Like dragon's teeth in the cold dark nights
They pierce black skies like midnight noon
Austere and lovely, mountains of the moon
