The Us Below Lyrics

David Crosby The Us Below

A billion burning suns
Calmly do
As they did before
Like me and you

Sitting in their place
Bound, but years apart
Stubborn as we are
With matters of the heart

Science, God and you
All agree
We've become something
We weren't meant to be

Paths run parallel
Here and up above
Distance held by hearts
Afraid to open up

Yet even though
Our love burns slow
It warms me
And all around
Sight and sound
Inform me

That we have found
A common ground
Like the stars
Why must we be
Eternally
Alone?

A finely diamond sky
Jewels in everglow
Illuminates the distance
Between the us below

Me here
You there
And in the middle
The frozenness of fear

Yet still we've found
A common ground
Like the stars
Why must we be
Eternally
Alone?
