Lyrics
no time for guessing no time for thought
just mark the target take your shot
maybe time moves like feathers across a string it doesn't mean a thing
and maybe newton had the right idea
to simply watch and let it fall
poetry was the main idea
gravity an afterthought after all
here i am an apple on my head and i am scared
i won't lie
just to prove your aim is straight and true
i won't move
i will try
there you are i can see your drawing hand
pulling true
staying taut
could it be there's more to you and me than gravity
it's worth a thought
shadows breed shadows in the fading day
taste minutes, feel seconds in slices of delay
maybe time is worth far more than i can sing
it's worth everything
and maybe hawking had the right idea
light versus matter in a one way race
maybe black holes are simply songs without a chorus
melody dissapeears without a trace
here i am an arrow in my hand and i'm made brave
by your smile
and just to prove my heart is pure and true i will shoot
to the sky
there you are i can see your body framed
against the sun
against the air
could it be you were meant to be with me and i with you
everywhere
