What are we searching for in the night sky
In this endless universe with its brightly shining stars
On this roaming white star with no place to return
Moonbase Alpha is a wandering star
Another day with tears falling from stars we don't know
Moistening the windows

 

Memories of love, hate, and fighting back on distant Earth
Memories, supposed to be long lost, keep coming back
On this white star
Moonbase Alpha is a wandering star
Another day with fragments of stars coming and going
Shattering our dreams
