R.E.M. - Feeling Gravity's Pull



Some lyrics to the song (not mine!)

I fell asleep and read just about every paragraph.
Read the scene where gravity is pulling me around
Peel back the mountains peel back the sky
Stomp gravity into the floor
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Time and distance are out of place here
Step up, step up, step up the sky is open-armed
When the light is mine
I felt gravity pull

Somewhere near the end it said
You can't do this
I said, I can too
Ships sway, rivers shift
Oceans form and mountains drift
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Step up, step up, step up the sky is open-armed
When the light is mine
I felt gravity pull (into my eyes)
Holding my head straight (looking down)
This is the easiest task I've ever had to do

I fell asleep and read just about every paragraph
Read the scene where gravity is pulling me around
Ships sway and rivers shift
Oceans form and mountains drift
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Time and distance are out of place here
Step up, step up, step up the sky is open-armed
When the light is mine
I felt gravity pull (into my eyes)
Holding my head straight (looking down)
This is the easiest task I've ever had to do

Reason had harnessed the tame
Holding the sky in their arms
Gravity pulls me down

Fame - I Sing the Body Electric



Some lyrics to the song (not mine)

I sing the body electric
I celebrate the me and to come
I toast to my own reunion
When I become one with the Sun

And I'll look back on Venus
I'll look back on Mars
And I'll burn with the fire
Of ten million stars
And in time, and in time
We will all be stars

I sing the body electric
I glory in the glow of rebirth
Creating my own tomorrow
When I shall embody the Earth

And I'll serenade Venus
I'll serenade Mars
And I'll burn with the fire
Of ten million stars
And in time, and in time
We will all be stars

Yeah, ooh, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!

We are the emperors now
And we are Czars
And in time, and in time
We will all be stars!

I sing the body electric
I celebrate the me and to come
I toast to my own reunion
(my own reunion)
When I become one with the Sun

And I'll look back on Venus
I'll look back on Mars
And I'll burn with the fire
Of ten million stars
And in time and in time
(And in time, and in time)
We will all be stars!
