When you point at the sky

What you hit will be far away

Funny that

With the naked eye

You might look at a star and say

It's like somebody's playing with us

It's borderline suspicious.

As if

The hum of the heavens above

Murmurs from the afterglow

Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows

As if

I'll empty out a lake with a spoon

Buy a plot of land on the moon

Where we can hide away

And tend our sorrows.

Will you look at the time?

I don't know what

Got over me

Yes, I do

Hope you don't mind

I'll be off

Momentarily

For me to intrude

In this way

Highly unusual

You might say.

As if

Like a shirt worn thin thru the years

I'll let you down the moment I tear

I can assure you

That won't happen ever

As if

You're standing

On the edgeof a cliff

Unaware your footing might slip

I won't be there to push you back

Forever.

As if

The hum of the heavens above

Murmurs from the afterglow

Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows

As if

I'll empty out a lake with a spoon

Buy a plot of land on the moon

Where we can hide away

And tend our sorrows.

As if

As if

As if

As if

As if

As if

As if

As if

As if.
