Week 16b - New Gravity (200412)

from Song A Week, Volume 5 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

You must have been what held us all together
Because today we fell apart
You must have been who brought the sunny weather
Because today we're in the dark

You must have been what kept the clouds from pourin'
Because today there's only rain
You must have been who colored every mornin'
Because today we're outta' paint

There's a new gravity
A new gravity

You must have been what filled up all the rivers
Because today they're runnin' dry
You must have been who kept my hot tears hidden
Because today they fill my eyes

You must have been who shared their heavy burden
In this empty coffee shop
You must have been what kept this whole world turnin'
Because today I felt it stop

It's a new gravity
A new gravity
