THE EARTH MAKES US FEEL THINGS

we come from dust
now we're way off track
we come from dust
who wants to go back?
there's reason to live
these reasons are real
but they ain't got a word
for the way that we
wanna feel

i spy a new saucer
each time i look up
clouds full of liquid
the earth is the cup
the moon is a cold place
the sun always burns
but home is the cool place
the color of ferns

the earth makes us feel things
till we start to crack
these are the real things
the earth takes them back

her roundabout wisdom
her roundabout style
she'll let you walk on her
but just for awhile
the earth makes us feel things
she's all the we've got
the earth makes us feel things
cause the center of her is hot

she's dressed for the evening
her shoulder is cold
it's dripping with diamonds,
silver, copper and gold
the earth makes us feel things
till we start to crack
these are the real things
the earth takes them back

the earth is all we've got
and deep inside she's hot...
