Artist: R.E.M.
Song: you are the everything
Album: Green
Year: 1988
Sometimes I feel like I can't even sing
(Say, say, the light)
I'm very scared for this world, I'm very scared for me
(Say, say, the light)
Eviscerate your memory
Here's a scene, you're in the back seat layin' down
(Say, say, the light)
The windows wrap around
To sound of the travel and the engine
(Say, say, the light)
All you hear is time stand still in travel
And feel such peace and absolute
The stillness still that doesn't end
But slowly drifts into sleep
The stars are the greatest thing you've ever seen
And they're there for you
For you alone, you are the everything
I think about this world a lot and I cry
(Say, say, the light)
And I've seen the films and the eyes
But I'm in this kitchen
(Say, say, the light)
Everything is beautiful and she is so beautiful
(Say, say, the light)
She is so young and old and I look at her
(Say, say, the light)
And I see the beauty of the light of music
The voices talking somewhere in the house
Late spring and you're driftin' off to sleep
With your teeth in your mouth
You are here with me
You are here with me
You have been here and you are everything
Sometimes I feel like I can't even sing
(Say, say, the light)
I'm very scared for this world, I'm very scared for me
(Say, say, the light)
Eviscerate your memory
Here's a scene, you're in the back seat layin' down
(Say, say, the light)
The windows wrap around
To sound of the travel and the engine
(Say, say, the light)
All you hear is time stand still in travel
And feel such peace and absolute
The stillness still that doesn't end
But slowly drifts into sleep
The greatest thing you've ever seen
And they're there for you
For you alone you are the everything
For you alone you are the everything
