The Minutia of Things Lyrics

The minutia of things

In pebbles and rings

In small shiny stones

And branches of twigs

In pebbles

And stardust

In each grain of sand

The swirling

And grinding beyond

On a river that flows

I watch you float by

Renewed by the speed

It's the tug of the sea

It's a cool water cleanse

On a river that flows

And that river that flows

Heads back to the sea

The minutia of things

In pebbles and rings

In small shiny stones

And branches of twigs

In pebbles

And stardust

In each grain of sand

The swirling

And grinding beyond

We are just simple things

On this patch of ground

With the glorious minutia

Of creation all around

And the river that flows

Can mend any heart

Oh the river that flows

Back to the sea
