2. Come with me I can take you there
I remember
how close our spirits felt
when we were together
When there was no distance
between what you call you
and I call me
Our energies flowed together
leaving a trace of the union
we once felt
I know how to get there
just follow my lead
I can take you there
when time almost stopped

15. For you see we are both body and spirit
We are both mass and energy
So it doesn't matter if our bodies
can no longer be together
Because I'll always be with you
as you are always with me
We are gregarious bosons
And when my temple crumbles
in that precious moment before I
get on that bus again
I'll burn the memory of your spirit
into my very nature
So the first chance I get
I'll find my way back to you
just as if time had indeed stopped
