The Great Curve

Sometimes the world has a load of questions
Seems like the world knows nothing at all
The world is near but it's out of reach
Some people touch it but they can't hold on
She is moving to describe the world
She has messages for everyone
She is moving by remote control
Hands that guide her are invisible

The world has a way of looking at people
Sometimes we feel that the world is wrong
She loves the world and all the people in it
She shakes 'em up when she starts to walk
She is only partly human being
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
She defines the possibilities
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Holding on for an eternity
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Gone, ending without finishing
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so

World moves on a woman's hips
World moves and it swivels and bops
World moves on a woman's hips
World moves and it bounces and hops

A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up

She is moving to describe the world
Night must fall now darker, darker
She has messages for everyone
Night must fall now darker, darker
She is moving by remote control
Night must fall now darker, darker
Hands that move her are invisible
Night must fall now darker, darker

Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker

A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up

Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker
