Maybe they're wondering who keeps on waiting down there.
Mary Chapin CarpenterSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Just a pale blue dot A speck in an ink-black sky Do we see with our hearts Instead of our jaded eyes Imagine the world on a string And sing a traveler's prayer What if I heard my name called By a voice that I know From a memory somewhere From so long ago I keep feeling the lately departed are everywhere Now the days race like swifts in the violet hour Fearing and steering higher and farther Oh, to be finally delivered on a warm gust of air It's a traveler's prayer Reciting the words as we're yearning for home When darkness has found us at the end of the road Nobody's hurt and nobody's cold anywhere In a traveler's prayer
