Yo La Tengo - Center of Gravity lyrics

In crowded bars, packed subway cars Whenever you're next to me, center of gravity, can't feel both feet on the ground Walking home after dark, past the softball park It's clear to me, according to a rule I learned one day in school Basic geometry: two halves of a circle, you and me It's a familiar song we've known so long Your clever cuts into me as long as you're next to me I can't feel both feet on the ground
