A song about the blessing of friendship- and my friend Clio Heslop, a champion of popularising science.
lyrics
Every day you play
In light universal,
Orbits sway,
Waltz in rehearsal,
Spark and start,
All darkness unbound;
And the cynics say,
'Each first step is murder',
How they stray!
The truth can't be further-
Wreath the thief,
Give crowns to the clowns!
Chorus: And it's always good to see you around,
In the Lost and Found,
You're sweet, you're sound, we're gonna
Paint the town!
And it's always good to see you around.
When the mind Divine
Runs blind, all the while
You tow the line,
Right sights with a smile,
Blue lights by night,
Red mornings you found;
I might hit the deck,
Wrecked on what the rub is-
Better check
With the queen of the pub quiz,
Heart's in stars, your feet
On the ground
Chorus
M8: Hag-stones and stag bones
Weren't Newton's intended
Lenses, but your view
Is more true,
Your eye
Will take the soul with the sky!
Chorus
