The Universe Is Laughing by The Guggenheim Grotto Lyrics
October throws herself before my feet
And the sky goes powder blue
Holding her breath for me
I never thought myself a city shoe
But it's made of gold today
And it breaks my heart in two
'Cause I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
'Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
We were listening to this city hum and hush
Lying perfect in the dark
I felt you tremble 'neath my touch
Why's it everything I love I can't explain?
Like if the world
Should disappear
Only music will remain
And I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
'Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
And I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
'Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
And the galaxies
The galaxies are howling
The sun and moon
Are tickled pink and gold
The whole damn universe is laughing
And all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
And the sky goes powder blue
Holding her breath for me
I never thought myself a city shoe
But it's made of gold today
And it breaks my heart in two
'Cause I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
'Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
We were listening to this city hum and hush
Lying perfect in the dark
I felt you tremble 'neath my touch
Why's it everything I love I can't explain?
Like if the world
Should disappear
Only music will remain
And I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
'Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
And I want to hold onto it
But there's nothing to hold
And the universe is laughing
'Cause all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
And the galaxies
The galaxies are howling
The sun and moon
Are tickled pink and gold
The whole damn universe is laughing
And all a boy can really do is watch a boy unfold
