Earthbound

I used to watch the world from a distance
Out where resistance
And gravity were not my problem
I had no notion where I was floating
Stars were exploding
In a dream

But then you came along
And pulled me here
Into your atmosphere
I'm now earthbound

Time never seemed to make an impression
But on closer inspection
I was wrong, so wrong
I keep my focus locked on the one thing
That blocks out the spinning
Of the sky

What once was blue and green
And spherical
Is a messy miracle
I'm now earthbound

Every balding tree is an omen
Every backyard snowman
Certain not to last the winter
But because I want to see you growing
I am going to remain

And as the heat returns
And burns the lawn
I will be holding on
Til I'm earthbound
