Come on, hop on, let’s take a ride
Come and meet the travelers who came to town
They have a tale from the past to tell
From the great dark between the stars
We are a special speck of dust
A fleeting moment on an ark
A celebration, A resthaven
Of life
[02:31.96]Lay on a field of green
[02:33.92]With mother Eve
[02:35.64]With father pine reaching high
[02:38.13]Look at yourself in the eyes of aye-aye
[02:40.98]Unfolding rendezvous
[02:44.20][04:31.69]Deep into the past
[02:47.35][04:34.82]Follow the aeon path
[02:50.46][04:38.03]Greet a blade of grass
[02:53.39][04:40.77]Every endless form most beautiful
[02:56.64][04:44.20]Alive, aware, in awe
[02:59.38][04:46.87]Before the grandeur of it all
[03:02.97][04:50.51]Our floating pale blue ark
[03:05.91][04:53.59]Of endless forms most beautiful
Beyond aeons we take a ride
Welcoming the shrew that survived
To see the Tiktaalik take her first walk
Witness the birth of flight
Deeper down in Panthalassa
A eukaryote finds her way
We return to the very first one
Greet the one we’ll soon become
