Grace & Speed Lyrics

I want a s*****x big enough to fill with stars
So I can tell my age from any point in s***e and say with certainty
That you're only as old as you choose
Long as you spin you really got nothing to lose
I gave a picture to an architect in June
Asked if he could build a tower big enough to poke through the atmosphere
So I could climb in record time up to the moon
See the earth from a different point of view

Only you came along and asked why the world's so blue
And all I could offer up were theories I could never prove
When science fails we ask ourselves what good is truth if it is not true
And we still are only as blue as we choose
Well, I will pick a planet and you can choose a star
We'll plot our points together, we can travel very far
Our path is winding
We can't rewind but if we move with grace and speed
We can watch it all again from depths we have never dreamed
I wrote a story and I put it to a tune
And all the words were easy
And the movement, how it moved it, really moved me
Let it move you
I saw your tears
We may be aging but we shouldn't count in years
