"star matter" by Ani DiFranco

love gets started
next thing you know
it leaves everything else behind


love sets fire to your schedule
and then calls an end to time


love ain't far behind you
love ain't far behind


 when we're parted
it's always too long
and every time you come back
you come back so strong
and as soon as we can 
we gotta go lie down
in that place 
where our breath is one sound


andlove ain't far behind you
love ain't far behind


i was there to hear your bell
the first time it rang
and the beauty was
the beauty of everything
we are star matter
from the big bang


love ain't far behind you
love ain't far behind

love ain't far behind you
love ain't far behind
