Distant Things Lyrics

I'd forgotten how to say my name
until it came back to me today
Yes it came back to me today

We're not headed for a heaven on this earth
Remind me when I can't recall its worth

I sought out stars but the roots ran so deep beneath my feet
and life grew upon that tree
Yes life grew upon that tree

The truth is so close to us that it's impossible to see
with eyes that are fixed on distant things
