Let the Orbit Bend

Family memory

Gravity softens — let the orbit bend toward grace and each other.

Lyrics

Transcribed from the recording — close to the song, but not always word-perfect.

Now getting anywhere, just spinning in the dark
It's not a finish line, it's just a cosmic spark
Magenta on the rim, cyan in the groove
You don't need a map, you just need to move
Why are we rushing?
Why are we racing the clock when the needle hits the light?
The static starts to talk
Sing while the music plays
Dance while the galaxy spins
The ending is just the start
Where the rhythm begins
Don't look for the exit
Don't look for the end
Just let the record turn
Just let the orbit bend
Not a journey, not a destination
Just a strange and beautiful vibration
Play the part
Play the part
Sing while the music plays
Dance while the galaxy spins
The ending is just the start
Where the rhythm begins
Don't look for the exit
Don't look for the end
Just let the record turn
Just let the orbit bend
Just to dance
Spinning
Just to play
The music's already playing
So why stay still?
