One day the sun is going to die 
For us it means no more sunsets 
To the universe, just one less star in the sky 

Almost all who ever lived, have already died 
Countless stories of love and war and hope and pain 
Now lay silent side by side 

And yes I understand that my whole life is just a blink of an eye 
in the history of the earth, as with each moment that goes by 
but this moment that I’m with you 
It feels like time has stood still 
It feels somehow like it matters 
And that it always will 

In one billion years, the oceans will dry 
While somehow life may continue 
It will not be known to you and I 

To think we are so important, is an obvious crime 
We know that we are specks on a tiny dot 
Hurtling through space and time 

And yes I understand that my whole life is just a blink of an eye 
in the history of the earth, as with each moment that goes by 
but this moment that I’m with you 
It feels like time has stood still 
It feels somehow like it matters 
And that it always will
