The Woman Who Counted The Stars (Town Hall Live Sessions)

from Town Hall Live Sessions by Phia

/

lyrics

I have a galaxy in my back yard/I go outside and I can see the stars/I hung up the fairy lights from nail to hook/to remind me to remember to always look/I counted the stars in the sky/I counted them by hand and by eye/I tallied them up and subtracted, divided and multiplied/Mathematics seemed my only friend/But I could divine the heavens/I discovered there weren’t nearly enough for it all to stay together/How do we stay together?/How do we hold together?/How do we stay together?/I rotate and I collide/I make mistakes but I'll survive/Comets shoot and meteors soar/Women work and we explore/She counted the stars/She counted them by hand and by eye/She tallied them up and subtracted, divided and multiplied/Mathematics seemed her only friend/But she could divine the heavens/She discovered there weren’t nearly enough for it all to stay together/How do we stay together?/How do we hold together?/How do we stay together?/ It pushes you down, immutable as gravity/But the universe is more than you’ll ever see/ It pushes you down, immutable as gravity/But the universe is more than you’ll ever see/I counted the stars in the sky…
