lyrics

They said mercury was going to be in retrograde,
They said I have only so much time to create
I don’t mind a long passage of time
But then again I’m too stubborn to wait

And I looked up and saw how small I was,
And you stood there, jumping in the air
A sight to see, my eyes tear up slightly
And you, tippy-toes smiling with glee

Why do I fear?
Why do I fear?
So small, so mere,
Why do I fear?
At least I’m here.

Listen to all the songs
Memorise Rick Rubin quotes
Lead a purposeful life
Then freak out in my notes

But the galaxies don’t care,
They exist and die and repair
So I’ll sit for a while, blue
Resume stargazing with you

And I looked up and saw how small I was,
And you stood there, jumping in the air
A sight to see, my eyes tear up slightly
And you, tippy-toes smiling with glee

Why do I fear?
Why do I fear?
So small, so mere,
Why do I fear?
At least I’m here.

Lo and behold,
All of the stars have aligned
All of my patience has arrived
And you get what you so desire.
Be still, my beating heart
I held a star to my chest today
Meeting a memory from yesterday
In distant view I saw you
You.
