MALE: For the first time in my life, I am not outside the moment With a camera in between me and the world I think I know. For the first time in my life, I am somehow part of something. You surround me, you connect me, And I think I can't let go. For the first time in my life, You have opened up a channel There is nothing to contain us, We are joined, and we are free. For the first time in my life, I am risking something precious. I am asking you, to please, stay with me. - I can't tell you I know what the future will be. Who knows anything? I just look at those eyes; you've got so much to see. Let me know you. There's Crowds and camels and hillsides to climb. All I know is, in all of the time From man's first breath To God's last warning, You and I are just one second, Spinning by in one split-second. You and I have just one second And a million miles to go. - I don't need to be rich, I don't need something new. All I need, all I've needed my whole life was you. Please just look at me: You were born with a wanderer's soul. This is how you begin to be whole. The stars keep burning, Worlds keep turning MALE & FEMALE: And you and I are just one second, Spinning by in just one second, You and I have just one second MALE: And a million miles to go.. (Slow tempo, pick chords,add violins) How do I go? Tell me. How do I go? How do I go with you? Close a door, Turn a key, And walk away? (Slow, strum each chord) MALE: I can't tell you I know what the answer will be. It's impossible. But this thing, this is bigger than what we can see. This is destiny. We are tied, we are locked, we are bound; This will not be reversed or unwound. (Begin strumming normally, and building the volume) Whatever fate the stars are weaving, We're not breaking, I'm not leaving, (Full volume) MALE & FEMALE: And you and I are just one second. Spinning by in just one second. You and I have just one second? FEMALE: And a million miles to go MALE: All my life I have been falling? FEMALE: All my life I have been falling? MALE: All my life I have been falling.., into FEMALE: All my life I have been falling MALE: You MALE & FEMALE: and I have just one second MALE: And a million miles to go. (Slow tempo,acapella until last word) MALE & FEMALE: A million miles... to go.
