Life is Longwritten by Michael NesmithLooking at the skies through a telescope Looking for a purpose Looking for some hope Saw a little twinkle from a little star A wink, a nod, there you are Look at companions rolling with the wind Said I'm going to that star and back again Even in a body it can't be that far I gotta stop thinking in seconds Start thinking in light-years I've gotta stop thinking in pounds Start thinking in tons Stop thinking in screens Start thinking in songs Life's not too short Life is long Life's too long to be doing things halfway Life's too long to be waiting around Close or far we all get there someday We're always somewhere lost or and found You get it right now, don't get it wrong Life's not too short Life is long Make it all good now Life is long Life is long No such thing as a little bit of light Even in a little everything is right Even in a little everything is there Even a little is everywhere Stop thinking in bits start thinking in songs Life's not too short Life is long Stop thinking of the sinking of little boats Take a longer view of how things flow floats Think about the ocean not about the moats Take a welcome rest from the same old dope goats Tear up the maps that have it wrong Life's not short Life is long Gotta stop thinking in screens Start thinking in songs Start thinking in songs Life is long Life is long Life is long If eternity is anything to go by
