When it flows from the fingers And turns to stone It shatters with the touch Feel the air, breathe it in Turn the corner, take the bend Give or take the bend It's a spiralling cork-screw path towards you It's a sinking, twisted path from me to you For a second I saw you so clearly (clearly) For a moment I knew you so dearly (dearly) I looked into your eyes and into your mind You were laughing like a statue come to life The subtle piano raindrops The creaking of the buildings and their cellos The wind was our violin The sky was a symphonic mural of stars Hiding behind perfectly placed clouds Because everything is the way it is And everything is perfect in their imperfections And everything is placed the best And it is now, and it is here And tomorrow is another now Waiting to happen The roar of an action silences all the words The cry of an accomplishment Drowns the whimper of ten thousand words And we live in our actions and our reactions And we live in our actions and our reactions
