This Life Lyrics

A band then stardust in your eyes
A billion years or just this night
Either way it'll be all right
A blackness then the light of a million stars
As you slip into my car
The evening sky strike sparks
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect

At night at my telescope alone
This emptiness I've roamed
Searching for a hone
The stars a brief sting of shining charms
Rushing in red out of our arms
Into the drifting dark
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect
This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress
My universe at rest

We reach for starlight all night long
But gravity's too strong
Chained to this earth we go on and on and on
Then a million suns cresting where you stood
A beauty in the neighborhood
This lonely planet never looked so good

This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect
This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress
My universe at rest

A lot like Girls In Their Summer Clothes except I like this song slightly better. This song gets a lot better as it goes along, especially at the end when C jumps in on the fun. But why the end?? Bring him in sooner!!

This is a reflection song and a song about where we go when we die. "This life... With you i have been blessed" .I hope someone sings that at my funeral!
