Big mistake
Mad sinThat the universe just sorta fell together like a big mistake.
It started with a bang that sent the pieces flying
Then it cooled and twirled into dinosaurs and dandelions.
It was a big mistake to have eyes that see,
To have love like this inside of me,
To have lips that smile as I swim your kiss,
To have minds that will forever every part of this.
All the moonlight shrouded in the clouds above
And the autumn leaves and the falling love,
The still reflection in the moonlight lake,
All they said it was a big mistake.
It was a big mistake.
Now back in science class through the looking glass
We were magnifying little ancestors of our ancient past.
Watch 'em break a couple chromosomes, wait a zillion years or so,
And get an ostrich, a jellyfish, a kangaroo, and a Romeo.
It was a big mistake to have eyes that see,
To have love like this inside of me,
To have lips that smile as I swim your kiss,
To have minds that will forever every part of this.
All the moonlight shrouded in the clouds above
And the autumn leaves and the falling love,
The still reflection in the moonlight lake,
All they said it was a big mistake.
It was a big mistake.
The choreography of a coincidence
At the turning point there was eternity behind a moment's glance.
It was for you and me, the timing made us laugh
The fact that anyone could find their only one along this darkened path.
It was a big mistake to have eyes that see,
To have love like this inside of me,
To have lips that smile as I swim your kiss,
To have minds that will forever every part of this.
All the moonlight shrouded in the clouds above
And the autumn leaves and the falling love,
The still reflection in the moonlight lake,
All they said it was a big mistake.
It was a big mistake.
