## Lyrics

**The Traveler:**

Can all sympathies thrive

And all powers be exercised

If we live with all our hearts

I feel like that’s a good place to start

So take a deep breath

Close your eyes

Hold on tight

Look deep inside

We all have a world of our own

In the shadows you long to tame

Many sparks build a flame

**Margaret (counterpoint):**

I take a deep breath

I close my eyes

I hold on tight

Look deep inside

I see my friends

**The Traveler (counterpoint):**

Between our breaths

Beyond our home

Between our hands

Beyond what’s known

And now

**Margaret, The Traveler:**

A door has opened

A family

**Margaret:**

The one I’vе chosen

**The Traveler:**

We all have a world of our own

**Margaret:**

Wе’ve made a world of our own

I forgive you, Samuel

I trust you, Rose

You give me faith

**(spoken)**

You are powerful, Traveler. Can you send us back to Earth?

**The Traveler, spoken:**

If that’s what you want, Margaret

**Rose, Samuel, spoken:**

I want that, too

**The Traveler, spoken:**

**(laughing)** Very well, Stratfords

**Herschel, spoken:**

It is tempting to stay. I believe this satellite to be the most miraculous experiment in the history of mankind, save one

**Margaret, spoken:**

Which one is that?

**Herschel, spoken:**

Our friendship. Where we travel…

**Samuel, spoken:**

We travel together

**Rose, spoken:**

Oh, before we go, let me get my printing press plate. Samuel, get your notebook

**Samuel, spoken:**

On it

**Herschel, spoken:**

Nova,

**(sung)**

I already know

What you’re going to say

**Anna, sung:**

I want to stay

I need to stay

**Herschel:**

I already know

I can’t change your mind

**Anna:**

I’ll be your guide up in the sky

Besides

Someone needs to catalog these plants

**Herschel, spoken:**

I suppose you could-

**Anna, sung:**

Someone needs to keep this ship intact

**Herschel, spoken:**

Well, that stands to reason-

**Anna, sung:**

Someone needs to watch over the Earth

**Herschel, spoken:**

Ugh, Nova-

**(sung)**

But what if you wanted to come back

**Anna:**

The Traveler would help me

**Herschel, spoken:**

Right?

**The Traveler, spoken:**

Right

**Anna, sung:**

Hershey, I made a promise

This was meant to be

The brick satellite

Is my destiny

We’ve made a world of our own

**Herschel:**

Look how it’s grown

**Anna, spoken:**

Thank you, John. For believing in the satellite

**Herschel, spoken:**

I’ll believe in you, Anna. I always will

**Anna, spoken:**

Rose is a lucky woman

**Herschel, spoken:**

I don’t know what you’re talking about

**Anna:**

You’re a smart man. You’ll figure it out. Eventually

**Herschel, spoken:**

Until we meet again

**Anna, spoken:**

Until we meet again

**Rose, sung:**

Okay, we’re ready

**Herschel:**

Take my hand

**The Traveler:**

Close your eyes

**Samuel:**

I could get used to adventure

**The Traveler:**

Hold on tight

**Margaret:**

Out of the shadows

**Anna:**

Enjoy the ride

**All:**

Who could have known

We’ve made a world of our own

**Anna:**

Look how it’s grown
