So the thing is:
I don't like planetside.
I was born in space and I stay in space.
But you like it.
So I'm here.

And I'm glad:
for the big moon.
the swooping green mountains.
that calm smooth lake.
most of all for you.

You
and your smile.
How happy you are.
I want you always
to be this happy.

If it makes you happy,
I will go planetside.
If it makes you happy,
I will go into space.
If it makes you happy,
I'll leave this all behind.
And if I make you happy,
then I am yours.
