Timeless, silent, spinning free, veined by links space cannot see,
Our planet floats eternally - by such a slender thread ...
The here & now is a moving point that digests the future at such a rate
It spits out the past like a comet's tail: such a slender thread ...

Freeze the moment; Take the time to feel alive
Freeze the moment: It's by such a slender thread ...

Lost in the freefall of your look I see you through a kaleidoscope
Of all the pasts we've already shared that are shining from your face.
And when we talk, all the words we use, they resonate in corridors
That are already lined with the echoes of all we've said before.

Freeze the moment; Take the time to feel alive
Freeze the moment: It's by such a slender thread ...

Somewhere, on some distant shore, the children of Hiroshima
Turn their sightless eyes toward the setting of the sun.
Timeless, silent, spinning free, veined by links space cannot see
Our planet floats eternally - by such a slender thread ...

Freeze the moment; Take the time to feel alive
Freeze the moment: It's by such a slender thread ...
