You always were a Vulcan, sir
Though you were Starfleet trained
Two lonely men named Spock and Len
In space true love attained
Yet romance you feared, that new frontier
Emotion left you drained
Oh it’s goodbye to my long gone Vulcan lover
Space-farin’ life created strife
‘Tween Human Vulcan torn
Though it was clear you held me dear
By Jim I sure was warned
You chose to fly, my desert guy
To the world where you were born
And it’s goodbye to my long gone Vulcan lover
Homecoming day I thought you’d stay
The air was soft with spring
We walked till dark a bayside park
I offered you a ring
No final kiss for me to miss
Just tears to make eyes sting
It was goodbye to my long gone Vulcan lover
To my digs alone I dragged my bones
Not hiding my dismay
Guess I always knew that someday you’d
Let logic push McCoy away
Commander Spock has left his Doc
Along with ol’ Star Fleet
Eridani A burns hot by day
A mirage swims in the heat
On Selaya’s slopes in monkish robes
You’re feeling all complete
So it’s goodbye to my long gone Vulcan lover
No, you never read one letter
That I tried to send to you
Yes, it's goodbye to my long gone Vulcan lover
