1
I can't answer the questions you ask me,
2
I don't know what to say.
3
The answers are somewhere lost in the stars
4
when the night has turned to day.
5
But I know if the silence of night could be here,
6
It would drift through my soul and calm all my fear
7
And I could reach out and draw you so near to me
8
Touch me and warm me and I will lie still.
9
And all that you ask me to give you I will
10
One living moment we'll have for our own.
11
A brief flash of time that we spent unalone.
12
But you ask me for nothing and give what you can
13
And we're wrapped in a pillow of sleep once again
14
And my memory drifts through the universe when we are one
15
Closely we're falling through time
16
And the earth will turn in the silence of space,
17
always in motion yet always in place
18
And all things will change yet remain what they are.
19
And far will be near and near will be far
20
And the ages will darken and blend into time
21
And all that is poetry will no longer rhyme
22
But our moment together is forever sublime
23
For the time has arrived when we must understand
24
That we're lost in a void on this sad speck of sand
25
And nobody knows where we are, no one cares
26
And the tears that we shed in the dark no one cares
27
And the madmen who plunder this world for their fame
28
Have forgotten that no one remembers their name
29
But time and the universe are always the same
30
Closely we're falling through time
