A religious/spiritual/new-age song, that tries to tie Pagan/Wiccan beliefs to the latest scientific and philosophical theories and quantum physics.
Story behind the song
I'm very interested in the concept of "Time", and believe that it ties in with new-age spirituality. I recently read an article in a science magazine where some theoretical physicists believe that the concept of time does not exist.
I also read several books about the concept of time and came away with the belief that "Time" is, among other things, part of God, and vice-versa.
Lyrics
A monkey wrench has to first be thrown
To screw up the plans you had in mind
You get a sense that it’s blown
And nothing can ever make it right
And when that scare you had is enough to change your life
That single moment when your memories flash before your eyes
Raining on Sunday, lightning streaks across the sky
Praying that someday, all the stars will become aligned.
It starts to make some sense
You don’t seem quite as tense
When there’s hope in your eyes
Nature is my religion, her miracles are everywhere you look
Respect is the only condition, don’t have to follow any rulebook
If you ask me to tell you about my God
I don’t know all she is, but I know what she’s not.
Raining on Sunday, lightning streaks across the sky
Praying that someday, all the stars will become aligned.
It starts to make some sense
You don’t seem quite as tense
When there’s hope in your eyes
With or without faith, life happens while you’re wasting time
Looking for answers that you can never hope to find
I read in a science digest, an equation with no equal sign
Now some say they no longer believe in time
God is time, Time is God
God is time, Time is God
Raining on Sunday, I hear the music of the wind and rain
Wondering if someday I can write a song that feels the same
If there is no time at all, then why won’t the rhythm stall?
That brings joy to your eyes
That brings joy to your eyes
That brings joy to your eyes
Raining on Sundays
Raining on Sundays
