gravity (feat. David Byrne)

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 will 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 are indifferent The sky always changes 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 all 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?
