Lyrics for Song: This Life
Lyrics for Album: Working On A Dream [2009]
A bang then stardust in your eyes
A billion years or just this night
Either way it'll be all right
A blackness then the light of a million stars
As you slip into my car the evening
sky strikes sparks
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed,
What more can you expect
At night at my telescope alone
This emptiness I've roamed
Searching for a home
The stars a brief string of shining charms
Rushing in red out of our arms
into the drifting dark
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed,
what more can you expect
This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress,
my universe at rest
We reach for starlight all night long
but gravity's too strong
Chained to this earth we go on and on and on
Then a million suns cresting where you stood
A beauty in the neighborhood
This lonely planet never looked so good
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed,
what more can you expect
This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress,
my universe at rest
