Nothing Will Fit In Eternity*

there is a sound coming down the hill
there is a someone who waits until
there is a sweetheart in the land beyond
there is a dancer in a song
in your heart
you dance along

there is a garden in the summer sun
and it's lots of fun
there is an answer
but it's not the one
that you wanted
there is a warrant to lay us all to rest
was it only a test
did you give it your best
in your heart
did you dance along?

what are you saving it for
what are you trying to put in the bank
nothing will fit in eternity
except you and me
and everybody else

there is a symphony in the middle of the sea
there are two lovers, one is you and the other me
there is a conductor with a magic wand
there is a dancer in a song
in your heart
you dance along

there is a stratosphere at the end of sight
i saw it in the night
stars made of fire
all were burning bright
just like lovers
there is a motion in the underground
it moves with the sound
it moves all around
in your heart
did you dance along?

what are you saving it for
what are you trying to put in the bank
nothing will fit in eternity
except you and me
and everybody else

there is a sound coming down the hill
there is a someone who waits until
there is a sweetheart in the land beyond
there is a dancer in a song
in your heart
you dance along

there is a garden in the summer sun
and it's lots of fun
there is an answer
but it's not the one
that you wanted
there is a warrant to lay us all to rest
was it only a test
did you give it your best
in your heart
did you dance along?
