2001 (a song I thought I lost but found again)
Not only moving
but moving apart
not only moving apart
accelerating.
Even light can't move fast enough
for me to get there in my lifetime.
You and I travel
on the ever expanding
we are both travelers
in boundless surroundings.
We are not only moving
but moving apart
we are singular events
in the ever expanding horizon.
Even sound is held down
by the atmosphere
my speaking to you a ripple
small click in the speed of time.
There's no sound in outer space
There's no sound in-between.
Not only moving
but moving apart
Not only moving apart
Accelerating.
In a million years
we will be more than a million
light years apart
with nothing to show for it in-between.
There's no sound in outer space
There's no sound in-between.
(the loneliness will be unbearable)
