Climbing up on Solsbury Hill |
|
I could see the city light |
|
|
|
Wind was blowing, time stood still |
|
Eagle flew out of the night |
|
|
|
He was something to observe |
|
Came in close I heard a voice |
|
|
|
Standing stretching every nerve |
|
I had to listen had no choice |
|
|
|
I did not believe the information |
|
Just had to trust imagination |
|
My heart going boom-boom-boom |
|
Son, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home |
|
Eh, don't quit |
|
|
|
To keep in silence I resigned |
|
My friends would think I was a nut |
|
|
|
Turning water into wine |
|
Open doors would soon be shut |
|
|
|
So I went from day to day |
|
Oh, my life was in a rut |
|
|
|
'Til I thought of what I'd say |
|
Which connection I should cut |
|
|
|
I was feeling part of the scenery |
|
I'd walk right out of the machinery |
|
My heart going boom-boom-boom |
|
Hey, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home |
|
Eh, back home |
|
|
|
When illusion spin her net |
|
I'm never where I want to be |
|
|
|
And liberty, she'd pirhouette |
|
When I think that I am free |
|
|
|
Watched by empty silhouettes |
|
Who close their eyes but still can see |
|
|
|
No one taught them etiquette |
|
I will show another me |
|
|
|
Today I don't need a replacement |
|
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant |
|
My heart going boom-boom-boom |
|
Hey, I said, you can keep my things They've come to take me home |
