Electricity Lyrics

We met and then the world went from civilized to disguised in a heartbeat

Remember the Rohingya, Rwanda, Congo and Croatia

Hold Katrina and Irma next to Haiti and Maria

To see our slanting landscape

It's tilting and self-destructing but we're out tonight so is jazz alright?

We're like two astronauts trying to change their trajectories in space

In sight but just out of reach

There's nothing more slow and more alone than drifting away from your home

Slowly revolving at an arm's length away

I fall for you every day when you look my way

On this backdrop of eternity, you saved me

You're unique, you make funny jokes

About my muscles

So I know that you like them. You know I want to know that you like them

Cause there a power between us

That's more than I dreamed of

We're dangerous on our own like two charged poles grabbing hold

To some live lines downed in the cold

Life is better together than alone, sometimes we add a spark and then explode

A bright white magnesium is seen a galaxy away

I fall for you every day when you look my way

Our gravity pulls us in and we make electricity

Between you and me we can't always have perfect connection

But we're exactly as we're supposed to be

We're grounded and charging for the action

The future creates a slipstream

Life glides lightly with you toward the unseen
