At This Great Distance

Memory

Ancient light from a binary star

Bends across a receeding tide

A single point of light st this great distance



At this great distance only the eye

Pressed against the telescope of dreams

Sees two stars

Two stars, two white hot lines on a firey white

Spinning madly on lines defined

By each others gravity.



And by the time we see

The light of memory

There is no hope

Theres no hope

Only memory



They danced to songs

Played at the speed of light

Red shifting

Untouchable

At this great distance two stars, two souls

Become one single point of light

Not hot

Not cold

Not you

Not me

Only memory



Chorus



Only memory - at this great distance

(repeat to end
