Falling Through Time
Don McLean

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 has 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 cares

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
