Don McLean - Falling Through Time lyrics

I can't answer the questions you ask me
I don't know what to say
The answers are somewhere lost in the stars
When the night is turned to day
But I know if the silence
Of night could be here
It would drift through my soul
And calm all my fear
And I could reach out and draw
You so near to me

Touch me and warm me and I will lie still
And all that you ask me to give you I will
One living moment we'll have for our own
A brief flash of time that we spent unalone
But you ask me for nothing
And give what you can
And we're wrapped in a pillow
Of sleep once again
And my memory drifts through the
Universe when we are one


Closely we're falling through time

And the earth will turn in
The silence of space
Always in motion yet always in place
And all things will change yet
Remain what they are
And far will be near and near will be far
And the ages will darken and blend into time
And all that is poetry will no longer rhyme
But our moment together is forever sublime

For the time has arrived
When we must understand
That we're lost in a void on
This sad speck of sand
And nobody knows where we are, no one cares
And the tears that we shed in
The dark no one shares
And the madmen who plunder this
World for their fame
Have forgotten that no one
Remembers their name
But time and the universe are always the same
Closely we're falling through time
