Rusty Reid - The story of now lyrics

Wander through the saga of the world All the way back to when time began Eons play with clouds of starry swirls Long before the age of man Then appeared an orb of blue and white Nestled in the family of Ra Baby Earth and Luna shining bright A masterpiece of nature's laws Let me tell you a tale It's the story of why It's the story of space and time It's the story of life It's the story of Earth It's the story of how It's the story of you and me It's The Story of Now In her water womb our Mother Earth Synthesized the first stir of life Two thousand million years before the birth Of any higher archetype So unfurled the chain of all our kin From moss and trees and fish and frogs and birds Every Earthling clad in nature's skin Our common genes a tangled blur Shimmering across a lost horizon A little band came down from the trees Out on to the plains under the bright sun And eventually beyond the sea The human story soars romantically Intrepid souls determined to survive So too we fall in sin so selfishly Thwarting our best chance to thrive The Universe does not give guarantees Just a shot at finding happiness Now we should know the secret and the key Love should be the north star of our quest
