Here Now lyrics

the buzz of electric lamplight

from down on the sidewalk

you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn

but the universe doesn? say what you want it to say

the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says



but on the planet earth, spinning around its axis

revolving around the sun, revolving around the center

of the milky way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies

will it ever be you and me here and now?



your consoling hands in a gesture

well placed and throbbing

throbbing with the buzz of electric lamplight

from down on the sidewalk

but the universe doesn? say what you want it to say

the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says



the buzz of electric lamplight

from down on the sidewalk

you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn

but the universe doesn? say what you want it to say

the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says



quanta, mesons, hadrons, photons, neutrons, electrons and protons combining to form

atoms and molecules and compounds and cells, tissues and organs in a system of a being

on the planet earth, spinning around its axis, revolving around the sun, revolving around

the center of the milky way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies will it ever be you and me here and now?
