Begin terrestrial, turn celestial, from explosions in the space and in the sea
The execution of evolution to dissolution from order to calamity
In the holy grip of time
And in its holy fist around life
They grow legs, they lay eggs, they build their bodies cell by cell
They wear bones, and their chromosomes hold knowledge they’ll never tell
And in the holy grip of time
And in its holy fist around life
And in the holy grip of time
And in its holy fist around life
And in the holy grip of time
And in its holy fist around life
And in the holy hands of time
And in its holy fist around life
And in the holy sands of time
And in its holy fist around life

Oh say there ma’am well how’ve you been?
Oh well, I’m doing fine
Of course I’d like to get together
We can talk about the weather some time
Let’s share our inconvenient lives
Like friendly strangers do
And fill the silence
In the space from me to you
Say dear friend how was your day?
Oh that’s great, tell me more
I could hear you talk for hours
And I’d never get bored
To catch a fleeting glimpse into
Your corner of the world
That’s when I knew it
That you’re my kind of girl
Talking for the sake of talking
Trying just to pass the time
Let’s relate and feel less lonely
Oh, we can share our minds
Oh say old friend well where’ve you been?
It’s really been so long
I hope you’re doing well
And I hope that nothing’s wrong
But as we start to drift apart
It all becomes so clear:
We’re gone, we’re moving
Far away from here
Say old friend how times have changed
If memory serves right
We’ll never run away together
Or talk all through the night
We’re going our separate ways
Wherever they may lead
But still remember
The space form you to me
Talking for the sake of talking
Trying just to pass the time
Let’s relate and feel less lonely
Sit on down and share our minds
Talking as a means of living
Trying to make sense of life
Let’s relate and feel less lonely
Oh, we can share our minds

I’m lost at sea
Don’t bother me
It’s easy to see
Open ocean and me
Cuz the waves tell me nothing
And the wind tells me nothing
And I’m waiting for something
But it never comes
Alone in the blue
Away from the truth
It’s easy to see
Through the empty and me
Cuz the waves tell me nothing
And the wind tells me nothing
And I’m waiting for something
But it never comes

I used to work in the factory
Until one fateful day on ABC
I guessed some words and a simple phrase
And from that day on my life did change
I spend my time in paradise
I do it for a hefty price, but
It’s what I love and now I love my life
The salt and sea and breeze all day and night
Forget all your worries
Don’t worry, be happy
Be happy, no worries
I dip my toes into the sea
I roast like a rotisserie
On the beach and in the sun I lay
Until my skin looks like strawberry lemonade
My life used to be so hard
Now I live in a postcard
Everything’s so shiny and new
I don’t even have to think about you
Forget all your worries
Don’t worry, be happy
Be happy, no worries
Happiness is the sea breeze
A magazine under palm trees
Coconuts and strawberry margaritas
I wanna see ya in Belize
Or Aruba, Jamaica, or Miami
And Orlando, feet in the sand
The tambourine beat of the band
Palm fans and daiquiris
Be a family man, the American Dream
This could be you, win big and be happy

Following the trails, the well-worn river roads
Footsteps on the ground where no one’s stepped before
The lightest arms of sunlight, the brightest shine of snow
Moonlight on the river, shimmering, an orange glow
The bluest of skies and infinite sunrise and there’s you
Through sunshine or clouds, or passing rainy days
The palest morning light filters through the summer haze
The fingers of the rivers reaching out across the plains
The palm is filled with sunlight and you’ll see from where you came
Me and you and all things new
The bluest of skies and infinite sunrise and there’s you
You and me and all things green
Believe that I send through the air that I care about you
The bluest of skies and infinite sunrise and there’s you
I’ll build a new nest for everything that’s next
Where you and me can rest through infinite sunsets just for you
