The Universe - Róisín Murphy

We got us a day made for sailing

We got us a day that will take us away

So far from home

Here comes the road rising up to meet us

How come the wind’s always at our backs?

I guess we were wrong

The universe is singing our song

Everything is pushing us on

When to you I do belong?

I guess we were wrong

The universe is singing our song

Everything is pushing us on

When to you I do belong?

…this boat, and we’re happy with that and, the next thing you know,

we were out in the middle of the ocean, this guy, this captain guy,

goes right out on the ocean, rowing away, like rowing away from the boat.

I was like «where is that captain going?», and he just kept rowing and rowing,

and I was like «this is not happening to me right now!»

I’m gonna row, row, row, row

Row my boat

I’m gonna row, row, row, row

Row my boat

I’m gonna row, row, row, row

Row my boat

I’m gonna row, row, row, row

Row my boat

I’m gonna row, row, row, row

Row my boat

I’m gonna row, row, I’m gonna row

I’m gonna row

I guess we were strong

The multiverse is singing our song

What possibly could go wrong

When to you I do belong?

It’s inevitable

If you’re afraid to fail

We may never set sail

Giving yourself to me

How could it ever be wrong?

Giving yourself for free

It only shows that you’re strong

Giving yourself to me

How could it ever be wrong?

I guess we were wrong

The universe is singing our song

Everything is pushing us on

When to you I do belong?

When to you I do belong?

When to you I do belong?

Giving yourself to me

How could it ever be wrong?

Giving yourself for free

How could it ever be wrong?

To you…
