lyrics

Story for kids

Story for kids:
waking up last christmas morning
or christmas day
big flat snowflakes falling past the window
That was really strange, that was a real spin-out
I'm used to waking up under the trees of green
the birds are tweeting, all that sort of thing

That's just one of the things you gotta take away
in exchange for these sensations

changes in your life, I suppose
that’s what they say
that clear white light

duck egg roof tops
icicles overhead

Come to the edge, he said
They said, we are afraid
Come to the edge, he said,
They came
He pushed them,
And they flew

There's a mountain in my back
while I stare over the frozen lake
no barbeque, but smells and bells
they always sounded inviting to me
try to imagine it on a canvas
the people on the streets, furry hobbits in slow motion

kids on their sledges, giggling

I remember my life in the stars
the wandering gaze from Antares to the southern cross
It's still and always the same,
just the signs are opposed, you say
Tell me something I can take away
something more dynamic that reaches out to me
Hold my hand

Clear white light
Clear white light
