Love In The Time Of Science
Think of me
Very scientifically
Share your thoughts with me
Send them over land and sea

They seep through walls
Echo down abandoned halls
They cling to skin
And penetrate the bones within

Let me see your joy and fear
Be you far away, so near

How can it be, we never seem to see
What we have until it's gone?
Why is it so, we never know
What we have until it's gone?

The more I try
All the faster you'll slip by
There things are never free
But then again, they shouldn't be

So vaporize
Slide to me like liquid ice
I long to be
The object of your scrutiny
I can see into your eyes
The deepest blue of winter skies

Why is it so, we never know
What we have until it's gone?
Until we burn, we'll never learn
What we have until it's gone

Scientificl-cl-cl-cly

I can see into your eyes
The deepest blue of winter skies!

Why is it so, we never know
What we have until it's gone?
Until we burn, we never learn
What we have until it's gone
