lyrics

BETWEEN LOVE AND SCIENCE

She and I like castaway
wishes in a well,
holding out for Science.
Holding on, is Science
on its way?

Holding up a wary sun,
the dustpan of the stars.
Holding out for science.
Holding on, let science have its way
with me. She and love are silent,
look away, amazed.
Love & Science.

There it is, an open house.
Here, let's go inside,
picking all the flowers
out of its enormous night.
Deal us in, cut in half,
future in a card.
Holding out for science.
Holding on, is science on its way?
Somewhere between
love and nothing.

Tell us, tell us why.
Tell us, tell us why.
Tell us, tell us why.
Tell us, tell us why.

Catching on to science.
Hold on, but is Science on to me?

Make sense,
walk fast,
talk slow
in a world of whispering
windmills.
True love
sleeps two,
what can we do
but make sense?
Somewhere
between
god and nothing
makes sense,
make sense.
Make sense.
She tells me
not to hold so
tight to science.
