Do You Realize?

"Do You Realize that you have the most beautiful face?
Do You Realize that we're floating in space?
Do You Realize that happiness makes you cry?
Do You Realize that everyone you know someday will die--

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes--let them know
You realize that life goes fast;
It's hard to make the good things last.
You realize the sun doesn't go down;
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning 'round."

(Lyrics by The Flaming Lips.)

Pretty much the best song ever--my sweetie's well aware it needs to be played at my funeral.

(Also, when seen performed in concert, the closest this cranky old atheist has ever come to a religious experience.)
