    "Beyond the rim of the star-light, My love is wand'ring in the star-flight," are the opening lines to what song? Who is the lyricist?

    Question #56188. Asked by jbean. (Mar 26 05 12:22 AM)

    Did you know that the nifty theme
    music you hear at the end of each
    episode of the original 'Star Trek'
    series actually has WORDS that go
    with it? It's true! Previously
    known only to a few insider
    'Trekkies', here are the actual
    words to the closing theme of the
    original Star Trek. Pretty nice,
    you might even find yourself singing
    along after you watch it again!!
    ---------------------------------

    Beyond
    The rim of the star-light
    My love
    Is wand'ring in star-flight
    I know
    He'll find in star-clustered reaches
    Love,
    Strange love a star woman teaches.
    I know
    His journey ends never
    His star trek
    Will go on forever.
    But tell him
    While he wanders his starry sea
    Remember, remember me.

    Lyrics by Gene Roddenberry (1966)

    YAY-and a fast one at that-MrsAce. Roddenbery was accused by the theme's writer, Alexander Courage, of making up the never-used lyrics in order to claim half the royalties of the song.
