The Universe Is Laughing Songtext
von The Guggenheim Grotto

October throws herself before my feet
And the sky goes powder blue
Holding her breath for me

I never thought myself a city shoe
But it′s made of gold today
And it breaks my heart in two

'Cause I want to hold onto it
But there′s nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
'Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold

We were listening to this city hum and hush
Lying perfect in the dark
I felt you tremble 'neath my touch


Was it everything we love, we can′t explain
Like if the world should disappear
Only music will remain

′Cause I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
′Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold

And I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
′Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold

And the galaxies, the galaxies are howling
The silent moon, a kick of pink and gold
And the whole damn universe is laughing
And all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
