Here is the rock I break myself against

Alone in the dark and the wind you rise with the tide

Infinite satellite. You shine on my skin

Pale and clear. I can see more than my fear

I don't belong to you

You don't belong to me

This dance we do

Thank God for gravity

You call me in from the east, I rush to your side

I push too hard then you pull. Here comes the storm

Gathering up all my tears, it's time to cry

You disappear but I feel you trying to break through

I don't belong to you

You don't belong to me

This dance we do

Thank God for gravity

I can't reach across the night and try to pull you in

All I've ever known is how to come and go, hide in the shadows

All the love I hold too tight becomes a million grains of sand

Only show a side in the light 'cause I'm afraid of what you'll find

I don't belong to you

You don't belong to me

This dance we do

Thank God for gravity

You are the night light, I am the darkness

Thank God for gravity

You are the witness, I am the tempest

Thank God for gravity
