The world's best country-western song about faster-than-light travel and special relativity

[spatch]

DOOLITTLE
Let's have some music in here, Boiler.

BOILER
Sure thing!

A million suns shine down
But I see only one
When I think I'm over you
I find I've just begun
The years move faster than the days
There's no warmth in the light
And how I miss those desert skies
Your cool touch in the night

Benson, Arizona, blew warm wind through your hair
My body flies the galaxies; my heart longs to be there
Benson, Arizona, the same stars in the sky
But they seemed so much kinder when we watched them, you and I

Now the years pull us apart
I'm young and now you're old
But you're still in my heart
And the memory won't grow cold
I dream of times and spaces
I left far behind
Where we spent our last few days
Benson's on my mind

Benson, Arizona, blew warm wind through your hair
My body flies the galaxies; my heart longs to be there
Benson, Arizona, the same stars in the sky
But they seemed so much kinder when we watched them, you and I

My word, but Dark Star has indeed grown on me since the last time I watched it.

Tomorrow: Socratic dialogue with a bomb.

I've been looking for this song for ages. Since I'm at work, I can't listen to it; I'm assuming it's just a straight recording from the DVD source--which is fine, all I have is an ancient VHS copy that's still at my parents' house.

Either way, good work. I really need to watch this movie again. All the people I forced to watch it with me said it was boring. Fie on them!
