On the horizon just over there
Distance always seems so peaceful
Except for those little fires
Springing up everywhere
From here we can watch
Another city burn while the sun
With startling beauty
Illuminates our loss
Herself escaping unharmed
And slowly we'll be standing
As if placed among the planets
And the stars in their millions
Each a life we have left to live
And all the time in the world
