Lyrics

What's the largest thing, you can think of?

Is it the sun or the moon?

What's the farthest thing, you can think of?

Is it that tiny star in the sky?

Oh, my, my...

Do you ever ask what it's made of?

Is it the same as me and you?

Well I guess that's true.

Now think of something, right in front of you.

Is it a tree or a cat?

Something that you can feel and touch, that's part of your world.

Now try to sense what it's made of...

It's the same as you and I.

Don't you want to know why?

What's the smallest thing, you can think of?

Is it a single drop of rain?

What's the closest thing, you can think of?

Is it the beating of your heart?

The closer we go, the more we start to see...

Are the same building blocks that make up you and me.

The sun, the moon, the stars, the sky.

The tree, the cat, your ears, your eyes...

The rain, your pulse that makes you and I.
