I found out this today because I was listening to a legal aid radio show called " Handle on the Law" . It seems the woman who had written these lyrics for Sammy Davis jr. to sing had never been paid roaylties of the recording and wanted legal advice on how to collect. So, naturally when I got the chance I looked on YOUTUBE and found a video of it.

So did Star Trek!
It is a bit tortured, but that may be why they went with the instrumental version...
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

I forget which podcast a picked this up on it may have been the Nerdest.
StarTrek theme has words because Gene Rodenberry wrote the lyrics to pick up royalty fee checks

It's raining again so nothing better to do, googled it and if the Internet is to be believed.......
