about

a love note to humanity and a contemplation of the paradox of impermanence/eternality

lyrics

If you're lonely
you might as well be clever
find your way through mazes
by laying down a thread
If you're hungry
you might as well keep smiling
maybe can find someone
wants to share their bread

'Cause everything is always
or else it would be never
love weaves into the spaces
holds it all together

The stars
seed us with the questions
we'll live our lives to answer
to find out who we are
My dad
taught me constellations
I'm not likely to forget them
though I travel far

'Cause everything is always
or else it would be never
love weaves into the spaces
holds it all together

And I really hope we make it
There's just so much we haven't learned yet
spinning on this planet
looking at the stars

'Cause everything is always
or else it would be never
love weaves into the spaces
holds it all together
