Katie Thompson - Five and a Half Minutes lyrics

Every five and half minutes the universe expands four miles And every time I blink another child enters the world The world has six and a half billion people this year And there are eight million people in this city on this island But right here and now somehow you're sitting here I may not ever catch my breath No matter how I try And I may never understand how Every single day we breath twenty three thousand times Because watching your chest rise and fall The numbers don't add up When all we are is A hundred trillion cells Two hundred and sixty bones Five quarts of blood Forty five miles of nerves nerves nerves And a hundred thousand hairs And too many organs And sixty thousand miles of arteries We must have been made by a man Cuz a woman would have made us more economically I don't know what that means All I know is that I've seen this scene some years ago And I would swear I'm watching from the stands And I would swear I know the second before you reach for her hand Feels like it's some old movie But the scripts no good And the girl's no beauty There's the evidence, more facts But there won't ever be a silence of The way you find or keep or measure Love How do you find or keep or measure Love
