Five and Half Minutes
Every five and half minutes the universe expands four miles.
And every time I blink another child enters the world.
There are six and a half billion people this year.
And there are eight million people in this city, on this island,
But right here, right now somehow we're sitting here.
I may never catch my breath no matter how hard I try.
Cause I may never understand how every single day we breathe twenty three thousand times.
Because watching your chest rise and fall....
the numbers don't add up at all.
WE are a hundred trillion cells, two hundred and six bones, five quarts of blood, 45 miles of nerves, nerves, nerves, and a hundred billion hairs, and too many organs and sixty thousand miles of arteries.
We must have been made by a man cause a woman would have made us more economically.
I don't know what that means, All I know is I've seen this scene some years ago.
And I could swear I'm watching from the stands.
And I would swear I know the second before you reach out your hand.
Just like its an old movie.
But the script's no good and the girl's no beauty.
That's the evidence. More facts.
But there never will be a science of...
the way you find or keep or measure love.
How do we find or keep or measure....
LOVE
