I want a shoebox big enough to fill with stars So I can tell my age from any point in space and say with certainty That you're only as old as you choose As long as you spin, you really got nothing to loose I gave a picture to an architect in June Asked if he could build a tower big enough to poke through the atmosphere So I could climb and wreck a time up to the moon To see the Earth from a different point of view Only you came along and asked why whe world's so blue And all I could offer up were theories I could never prove, when silence fails We ask ourselves what good is truth if its not true And still rolling as blue as we choose Well, I'll pick a planet and you can choose a star We'll put our points together, we can travel very far, our path is winding We can't rewind, but if we move with grace and speed We'll watch it all again from depth we've never dreamed Oh, I wrote a story and I put it to a tune And all the words were easy and the movement have it moved it really moved me Let it move you. I saw your tears We may be aging but we shouldnt count in years
