“Some humans wonder,
““Are we alone?”“
““Is there life up in the sky above?”“
They look up all day and night from their bedroom windows.
Waiting for a sign…
Hmm…
Do you believe there are aliens out there?

You didn’t believe in life in outer space.
I acted as if I did not either,
So you wouldn’t think I was insane.
But in truth, I lie awake,
Skygazing more often than my neckbones can take,
And I hope, someday…
My alien friends will come down from there and sing with me.

I’m always kinda nervous,
Asking about aliens.
Sometimes people look at me like I’m half crazy,
You did not, you said you believed.
It felt like a new level of friendship was achieved.
Hmm… okay so if they’d land in your backyard,
Would you try to be friends with them?

Everything I learned about humans at school,
Was proven wrong, you’re nice, and pretty cool.
I knew for sure when you said,
You’d befriend an alien.
If only I knew more people like you.
Though I hope that the aliens will think like that too,
And not shoot at you with lasers or something.
