Terra Lumina - If I Were A Lowly Photon lyrics

If I were a lowly photon, I wouldn't weigh a single ounce. I'd be a tiny ma**less little particle, The smallest nature will allow. And I'd be born within a stellar furnace In a far away star, Sailing through the endless darkness Straight to where you are. If I were a humble photon, I'd be the smallest little thing. If you tried to subdivide me, You'll find I'm not made of anything. And I'd be born within a stellar furnace In a far away star, Sailing through the endless darkness Straight to where you are. And I'd fly at the speed of light For a million years. Before I finally arrived Through the atmosphere to land upon your eye. If I were a lowly photon, I wouldn't carry any charge. Although you might confuse me with a proton, They don't carry light from stars. I'd be a gamma ray or x ray, Or just a microwave. Or infrared, or radio, Or the light that we all know. At times I'd just act like a particle, Sometimes like a wave. Plants could photosynthesize me, I never would decay. And I'd be born within a stellar furnace In a far away star, Sailing through the endless darkness Straight to where you are. And I'd be born within a stellar furnace In a far away star, Sailing through the endless darkness Straight to where you are. And I'd fly at the speed of light For a million years. Before I finally arrived Through the atmosphere to land upon your eye. Before I finally arrived Through the atmosphere to land upon your eye...
