Feeling Gravitys Pull Lyrics by R.E.M.

And I Feel Fine... The Best of the I.R.S. Years 1982–1987

1985

[Verse 1]
I fell asleep and read just about every paragraph
Read the scene where gravity is pulling me around
Peel back the mountains, peel back the sky
Stomp gravity into the floor
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Time and distance are out of place here

[Chorus]
Step up, step up
Step up, the sky is open-armed
When the light is mine
I felt gravity pull

[Verse 2]
Somewhere near the end, it said
"You can't do this." I said, "I can, too."
Shift, the swaying rivers shift
Oceans fall and mountains drift
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it

[Chorus]
Step up, step up
Step up, the sky is open-armed
When the light is mine
I felt gravity pull onto my eyes
Holding my eyes straight (Looking down)
This is the easiest task I ever had to do

[Verse 3]
I fell asleep and read just about every paragraph
Read the scene where gravity is pulling me around
Shift, the swaying rivers shift
Oceans fall and mountains drift
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Time and distance are out of place here

[Chorus]
Step up, step up
Step up, the sky is open-armed
When the light is mine
I felt gravity pull onto my eyes
Holding my eyes straight (Looking down)
This is the easiest task I ever had to do

[Outro]
Reason had harnessed the tame
Holding the sky in their arms
Gravity pulls me down
