Montaigne, David Byrne - gravity lyrics
[Montaigne, David Byrne - gravity lyrics]
Would you live in a house with me?
Plant your feet on solid ground with me?
No more reaching for the stars
Just the trees in the yard
I would give almost anything
Like my teeth or some oxygen
To be looking at you at sunset, cooking food
It's hard to be religious
It's easy to devote myself to you
To you
I could live in a shack for two
A little house with a yard would do
All that striving to succeed
Here is everything I need
I have learned how to sing this song
How to cook, is the taste too strong?
As the starlight fades away
Look at this, it's okay
It's hard to be religious
It's easy to devote myself to you
To you
The stars arе indifferent
The sky always changеs celestial bodies
All make themselves strangers
Adventure is lovely
But I'm much too tired now
As I sleep, I imagine a book with no pages
A story unfolding on improvised stages
Much singing and dancing, but
Can we go home now?
I have travelled around the world
I have seen how the cosmos swirled
It is big, but here we are
Just as beautiful as stars
Would you live in a house with a garden?
Would you work on your play in the study?
Would you plant some rocket for our salads?
Would you worship gravity with me?
Plant your feet on solid ground with me?
No more reaching for the stars
Just the trees in the yard
I would give almost anything
Like my teeth or some oxygen
To be looking at you at sunset, cooking food
It's hard to be religious
It's easy to devote myself to you
To you
I could live in a shack for two
A little house with a yard would do
All that striving to succeed
Here is everything I need
I have learned how to sing this song
How to cook, is the taste too strong?
As the starlight fades away
Look at this, it's okay
It's hard to be religious
It's easy to devote myself to you
To you
The stars arе indifferent
The sky always changеs celestial bodies
All make themselves strangers
Adventure is lovely
But I'm much too tired now
As I sleep, I imagine a book with no pages
A story unfolding on improvised stages
Much singing and dancing, but
Can we go home now?
I have travelled around the world
I have seen how the cosmos swirled
It is big, but here we are
Just as beautiful as stars
Would you live in a house with a garden?
Would you work on your play in the study?
Would you plant some rocket for our salads?
Would you worship gravity with me?
