bells ring, people sing
nobody cries about anything
they just let go, follow the flow
this is the wisdom that people know
but i dream in stone- i know this world of air
it can’t be the world that’s really there
through my fingers the tears keep falling down
they’ll fall and fall until they reach a solid ground
aye aye bye bye
theodore has left us and we’ll never know why
try not to cry when people die
ok, but where do they go?
they go to the light
that’s what you say, but it doesn’t seem right
to have to stay in a world so slight
change is life, life is change
these are the things you can’t rearrange
nothing in this world lasts forever
this brings value to the time we spend together
but I dream of bodies that God won’t take away
with limbs that never fall off and decay
through fingers my tears keep falling down
they’ll fall and fall until they reach the solid ground
aye aye bye bye
theodore has left us and we’ll never know why
try not to cry when people die
ok, but where do they go?
they go to the light
that’s what you say, but it doesn’t seem right
to have to stay in a world so slight
we won’t cry, this is a celebration
theodore made his life into a joyous creation
he was smart, fun, hardworking and modest
now he’s invisible and made of air just like God is
but i dream of gods with bodies of their own
who walk this world decked out in flesh and bone
just like angels, my tears keep falling down
they’ll fall and fall until we reach the solid ground
aye aye bye bye
theodore has left us and we’ll never know why
try not to cry when people die
ok, but where do they go?
they go to the light
that’s what you say, but it doesn’t seem right
to have to stay in a world so slight
don’t despair, he’s still sort of there
living in your heart like a puff of warm air
