Here & Now Lyrics - Singles - The Ernies

the buzz of electric lamplight 

from down on the sidewalk 

you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn 

but the universe doesn say what you want it to say 

the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says 

but on the planet earth, spinning around its axis 

revolving around the sun, revolving around the center 

of the milky way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies 

will it ever be you and me here and now? 

your consoling hands in a gesture 

well placed and throbbing 

throbbing with the buzz of electric lamplight 

from down on the sidewalk 

but the universe doesn say what you want it to say 

the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says 

the buzz of electric lamplight 

from down on the sidewalk 

you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn 

but the universe doesn say what you want it to say 

the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says
