the buzz of electric lamplight
from down on the sidewalk
you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn
but the universe doesn say what you want it to say
the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says
but on the planet earth, spinning around its axis
revolving around the sun, revolving around the center
of the milky way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies
will it ever be you and me here and now?
your consoling hands in a gesture
well placed and throbbing
throbbing with the buzz of electric lamplight
from down on the sidewalk
but the universe doesn say what you want it to say
the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says
the buzz of electric lamplight
from down on the sidewalk
you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn
but the universe doesn say what you want it to say
the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says
