Outside of Space & Time Lyrics

My love, your house has many rooms
The kitchen's filled with food
I'll find a place inside

The dreams that pass across your face
Come from a secret place
Ev'ryone close your eyes

It's true, I am a shaky ladder
Intergalactic matter
Outside of space and time


But who is standing on your street?
These buildings are not real
My tricks are useless here

It's true, that's what a lover hears
It's what a fool believes
It's not too late to try

Someday I'll step out from the shadow
Intergalactic matter
Outside of space and time

Dirty feet, crooked teeth
Somewhere out beyond the stars
A funny face, so lost in space are we

Ev'ryone's enlightened ev'ryday
You may reach Nirvana when you comb your hair


I know, we'll join this cosmic saga
Intergalactic matter
Where we will meet tonight
Spiraling out of sight
Outside of space and time

David Byrne and St. Vincent collaborated on the album "Love This Giant".

David Byrne and Annie Clark of St. Vincent began working together in late 2009, using a process that Byrne had previously used on his 2008 collaboration with Brian Eno, "Everything That Happens Will Happen Today." The Who Songfacts reports that Love This Giant was recorded in Hoboken, New Jersey over a two-year period and features 10 songs co-written by the two musicians, with each one fully penning one additional track.

The duo had previously played together live at a St. Vincent show and on the album Here Lies Love.

The duo worked with a digital promotions company to distribute the promotional single "Who" and create embeddable widgets to stream the album. They toured to promote the album with a backing band that includes eight brass players (led by Kelly Pratt of Bright Moments), St. Vincent's keyboardist Daniel Mintseris, and My Brightest Diamond's drummer Brian Wolfe. Like Byrne's previous Songs of David Byrne and Brian Eno Tour, the performers engaged in complex choreography onstage while performing
