Three Thousand Steps

Look up to the night sky
Do you see a lonely star
Or points of connection
Though it’s all so very far

Do you feel the power
As you reach out your hands
Do you feel the earth turning
In this cosmic dance

Three thousand steps between us
A stone’s throw from here
A million stars should have seen us
Drying a single tear
As we meet in the middle
I knew I’d find you here

Every night I take a walk
The same old dirty road
But tonight it must be cloudy
‘Cause I can’t receive the code

From the galaxy of thoughts
That reach for our heads
To steer our empty ships
Towards the river beds

And if love finds us at the drop of a hat
Let the river take care of that

Three thousand steps between us
(Three hundred more to go)
A stone’s throw from here
(Take it slow)
A million stars should have seen us
(What have we got to show?)
Drying a single tear
As we meet in the middle
I knew I’d find you here
